More than half of us believe we have a million-dollar idea tucked away in the back of our brains. A survey delving into the increasing shift towards entrepreneurship found that 59% of adults have considered quitting their current job to launch their own business. The OnePoll survey of 2,000 people found that two-thirds of respondents think they would be successful entrepreneurs. Online content creation is the most popular type of business that people dream of launching (51%), selling products online came second (49%), followed by providing services virtually (49%), in-person (46%), and opening a brick-and-mortar store (39%). When asked what keeps them from taking the leap, a third pointed to a fear of failure, while 37% said they lack the financial means. Three in 5 are already ahead of the game by having a side-hustle or are seriously thinking of launching one.
