Investor Poll: What is successful?

[Jedd Braunwarth]

Hey all, I have a fascination with discovering what people do, how they got started and why some people succeed and others don’t. I am hoping that some of you may play along and try to answer the basic questions below. You do not have to answer all if you find any offensive.
