Unlike previous years where most internships were never paid, today some of the top companies in America are paying their interns salaries close to that of full employees of second tier companies.

As I have said many times, the cost of entry for an aspiring entrepreneur has never been lower, and the total wealth of opportunities has never been larger.

Who wouldn’t want to be their own boss? Who wouldn’t want to make their own decisions as to where the company will be headed, and who to hire, and who to fire?

I spent much of the past week at CES, the Consumer Electronics Show. It used to be a “must-go” in Web 1.0 and 2.0, when there were significant product announcements slated for the show.
