Life After Military Service
There are 2 type of heroes: Those that risk their lives to protect their family and fellow countrymen, and those that risk their financial security to preserve the fundamentals of their country's principles. You have served our grateful nation and protected us from the evil that surrounds us, and we are eternally in your debt. You are a true hero, even though I know your honor does not allow you to think of yourself that way. You, more than anyone else, understand what it means to live for something and being prepared to defend something. This is why I believe the entrepreneur is the second type of hero.

The entrepreneur does not rely on a safe and secure wage, but ...
Veteran Entrepreneurs Are Growing In Ranks
What my eldest offspring doesn’t understand is I have a great life. In fact, I am living the life I have always dreamed of living. My life just happens to revolve around Planet Business. I am an entrepreneurial addict, a business junkie. Business is my chocolate, my Krispy Kreme donut, my nicotine, my caffeine, my crack. Maybe I’ll start a 12 step program for entrepreneurs who want to kick the habit and charge a cover to get in. Hi, my name is Tim, and I’m an entrepreneur.

The Past, Present and Future Workforce
According to business surveys, there are currently 4 generations in the workplace. Those born before 1945 (called Veterans), those born between 1945 and mid-1960 (called Boomers), those born between 1965 and 1980 (known as Gen Xers), and those born after 1980 (either Nexters or Gen Yers). This creates a minimum age span difference of at least 35 years. This may not seem to be significant by itself, but I remember when I turned 21, I thought 35 was ancient. Now that I am a part of the seasoned generation (also known as the middle of the road between the Veterans and Boomers), 35 is a youngster.

MORE HACKING. WHEN WILL IT STOP?
The simple answer? It won't. To paraphrase Willie Sutton, bank robber, "That's where the money is." PBS, Sony, Lockheed, Amazon, IMF, US Senate, etc., all announced in 2011 that their systems were hacked. Security specialists are now calling 2011 the year of the hacker. Weak SecureID tokens, malware, password attacks, etc., have all been used. Foreign governments, terrorists and a "hacking collective" called LulzSec have been accused.
