“I have thought about what I will do and the conclusion I have come to is that I will get bored quite quickly with day time television. I need to do something that continues to be challenging and interesting. I don’t have any great ambition to go out and make money. But I am still a) fascinated in starting up businesses and b) starting it in a way and running in a way that I want to do it.”

Bebo co-founder Michael Birch, to Techcrunch.

I added the boldface along with a) and b) captions.

I can’t speak for other entrepreneurs but the boldfaced part captures the real, pure essence of a) entrepreneurship and b) company building.

On the money front: if I wanted to make money I would have stayed in my cushy, well-paying job.

On the a) vs. b) I think that some entrepreneurs like the starting aspect alone/more; personally I am starting to really enjoy the management and scaling as well.
