I like watching the tv show the apprentice just because of the tasks they do and the cringy decisions for them they make for business but sometimes looking at the candidates makes me feel quite jealous that some are 19 or 20 and already have there own business and look like they've achieved everything already and are at the height of their career. I do feel the only one with or without Aspergers who didn't achieve everything in their 20s and not at the height of career

I’m 58. And have never owned a business.

Most people haven’t, actually.

Owning a business is easy. Running a business, especially a profitable business, is difficult.

An awful lot of the contestants are irritating people who would not last five minutes in a real job.
