Silicon Valley Parents Want Entrepreneurial Kids

Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal:

The focus of recent weeks may have been on Olympic Athletes, but only 1 in 10 who responded to a recent Business Pulse survey said that they would prefer their child to become one.

Readers were presented with a very limited set of career choices for their children in the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal online survey: Olympic athlete, U.S. Senator, doctor or entrepreneur.

The majority (54 percent) picked entrepreneur, probably not surprising in a poll centered in the valley.

The least favorite choice, also perhaps unsurprising, was U.S. Senator with 7 percent of responses.
