I would start a business focusing on one of the things I really care about; education for special needs children and bullying. I don't believe in the whole "reinvent everything" stuff that most tech founders proclaim, I would look into working together with people who already work on these issues and see if there's something I could do to innovate on 5% of the process to make it more efficient.
I had a very tough time as a kid because of mild autism, my baby sister has it even worse. I never got much of the help I needed as a child and felt very miserable. My hometown and my parents are much richer today and my sister has gotten a lot of help but I still feel there has to be something one can do to make this better. I was fortunate in discovering my love of math as an adult, and the perseverance to become an engineer, most people weren't as fortunate. I feel an obligation to help the children with special needs in schools today to make them feel safer, respected and empowered in a way childhood me never did.
