About business Hi people! Now I want to discuss with you a little bit about business. Recently I watched "The Man Who Built America" and it became a muse for writing that note. I have never been in US, but I read a lot about that country. I was born in the USSR, so my generation had to know about the country that was the enemy in a cold war. The thing that I really respect in the US is the way of entrepreneurship. As I know US was founded by European mans that wanted to become rich, independent and famous. They worked really hard and created a really powerful ventures. And that spirit is still in the heart of people. In the other side Russia that had almost 70 years of communism that dissolve any enterpreneur spirit and destroyed a major part of intellectuals. I know that in the beginning of XX century the Russian Empire was one of the leaders in the world with a huge amount of factories and other enterprises. Russia was almost monopolist in providing Europe with grain and dairy products. But that almost all gone in communist era. In the USSR there was a punishment for an entrepreneurship and people had to work only for government. Russia is only 25 years old officially, since the USSR falls. And now we have a lot of new small businesses. I'm also trying to create my own business, and I feel that environment for development is still very raw. I see that we almost have no competitors in Russia. That situation has a good and a bad side. You can reach here 500% of year growth and way more than 100% of margin, but you need to "develop bicycles". Here we have to learn a business science from our western friends and adjust that knowledge to the modern Russian reality. Despite all the negative that we could hear from TV, I really think that Russia has a huge opportunities for young businessman to build the definitely new Russian dream.
