“The creation myth of American wealth is almost always rooted in the entrepreneur. It’s the two kids who start a computer company in their garage or dorm room. Or the former standup comic who creates form-shaping undergarments, or the South African immigrant who creates a new electric car and private space program. But despite the high-profile examples, America may actually be falling behind the rest of the world when it comes to creating entrepreneurial wealth. A new study from Barclays, ‘Origins and Legacy: the Changing Order of Wealth Creation,’ finds developing countries now lead the U.S. when comes to wealth creation by entrepreneurs.”
