I like this list of the 10 Big Differences Between MBAs and Entrepreneurs.
Though I would argue that the risk taking character trait so essential for entrepreneurs can be taught, just not at school. I believe most children have some risk taking, just think of how many times a toddle keeps on trying when learning to walk. Parents can nurture this trait, or squash it.

Thank you for bringing up such a fundamental issue, I think that entrepreneurship is essential to a free society. Public schools promote dependence and irresponsibility which squash this individual drive that I feel we are born with.

I'm so glad you wrote this post! I agree that we need more entrepreneurs, and personally think that it's an essential skill we should teach our children. As homeschoolers, we can do that! Having the basics of how to start a business filed away in their skill sets may not be used for decades, but then again...they might use it tommorrow!
