Regardless, I'm putting my life where my mouth is. I started my own oil and natural gas exploration and production company in Denver.
I've also spun off a second company, a mineral royalties company, that is focused on the acquisition and divestiture of North American mineral rights in producing open-pit mines.
And finally, I've started a third US natural resources company, SonicFrac, to develop a solid-state fracturing device for optimizing the production of US Shale gas wells.
I also invest every last penny that I take home back into US mineral rights, US oil and gas prospects, and US minining royalties.
I own stock in dozens of publicly traded oil, gas, mining, and resource development companies.
Natural resources are the first thing I think about when I wakeup in the morning, and the last thing I think about when I go to bed at night.
I'm 26.
Perhaps I'm irrationally optimistic about US resource wealth...
I don't believe that I am.
But, you _need_ to be irrationally passionate about what you do. Whatever it is.
If you're running a consumer internet company, and are not irrationally passionate about its future, I doubt you could persevere through the trials and tribulations of being an entrepreneur.
I am a US natural resources entrepreneur. And I am zealous about what I do. You should be, too.
