The Call of the Entrepreneur

by Jay - The Phoenix Real Estate Guy on September 26, 2007

The documentary, The Call of the Entrepreneur, premiers tonight at the American Film Renaissance Festival.

What’s it about? Here’s the marketing spin:

A merchant banker. A failing dairy farmer. A refugee from Communist China. One risked his savings. One risked his farm. One risked his life.

Why do their stories matter? Because how we view entrepreneurs—as greedy or altruistic, as virtuous or vicious—shapes the destinies of individuals and nations.

The Club for Growth got a sneak peak and had this to say:

It’s a fun, feel-good movie that provides real life examples of how entrepreneurs have succeeded personally, and how they’ve made the world a better place. The show also cuts into commentary from free market leaders who help clarify the entrepreneur’s vital and indispensable role in our economy.

Real estate agents are by definition entrepreneurs. The trailer is intriguing. Might be worth $20 and an hour…

An in-depth review is here.

It looks interesting. I have seen it so I might be off the market recently. The only thing that bothers me is I dont like the way some documentaries hold up the idea of betting the farm on a new business. I am all for starting up businesses but their is something to be said for being a little conservative in how much risk you expose yourself too.
