You know you’ve made it when you are on every single newspaper and magazine publication known to man, or even better when they have a movie about the birth of your company! There are so many ways to make money online, it could be a physical product that you are selling, maybe you create software and want to help those pesky spies from gaining government information? What ever your flavor of entrepreneurial streak may be, there are some sure-fire ways to make it in the online world.

Whats more, you can often start making money without even putting any in, although this will probably cause a slower return rate and lesser volumes but you could still do it. The truth is that any Tom, Dick or Harry could start a business if they really wanted to. BUT…there’s a catch. Of course there’s a catch, there’s ALWAYS a catch right? “Well, go on tell us what the catch is!” I hear you ask, it’s simple, you just need to know. You need to know what it is you are selling, how you are going to sell it and you have to know it has a reasonable value. There’s no good selling rubbish if the value is zero.

Also you need to “Know” how to motivate yourself, how to motivate others, how to hustle with the best of them. Let’s stop a minute and rethink this through.

In order to make money online you need to have qualities, and give quality to your customer, client or subscriber. Sometimes content is king, sometimes it’s the person behind the content. With that in mind I offer to you, the kings and queens of the entrepreneurial world. “The 30 Richest Entrepreneurs Under 30″…

…Enjoy

FYI: Net worth’s are estimates based on stock prices, company shares, investment, annual earnings, estimates made by professionals, insider information & research from the internet.

Hello Everyone

As some of you who have been following me for a while know, I have done several “Top Young Entrepreneur Lists” including the highly successful Young Entrepreneurs Rich List over at RetireAt21.com

Today I have compiled a list of the Top Young Entrepreneurs Making Money Online – aged under 25 – these are really impressive individuals, both as business people and as human beings. Of course you will already know some of these names (Matt Mullenweg and Mark Zuckerberg for example) but there should be some that are NEW to you as well.

All of these young entrepreneurs are having a tremendous impact on the world – and we all have so much to learn from them.

Talking of impact, I am very pleased to announce that Yanik Silver is adding a “Young Mogul Day” to his now famous annual “Underground Online Seminar“. What is more I will be working closely with Yanik to make this one of the best young entrepreneur events ever – with some of the world’s most incredible top young entrepreneurs already booked to speak. (Any of you young entrepreneurs who got attended Yaniks last UNDERGROUND back in February already know what a Top Notch event this is) Expect to hear more news about this soon.

Finally — watch out for a BIG UPDATE at RetireAt21.com in the near future – we are currently doing a huge redesign with some amazing new content, including profiles of some of the world’s best up and coming young entrepreneurs.
