It's a separate question from what the OP asked, which is more about the individual motivation behind being an entrepreneur, but it is good for the OP to at least appreciate the fact that such people exist, for the sake of the economy. Even putting job creation statistics aside, entrepreneurship is essential to any economy. There would be no such thing as your stable job if not for an entrepreneur 10 years ago. Job stability doesn't exist in nature. Somebody had to create it, and somebody has to be out there continuing to create new things or the stability will fall apart, or become a stagnant organization that doesn't exist for any good reason. Major improvements come in the form of entrepreneurs, or at least by established companies being checked by entrepreneurs.
