Family Business?
If you have a spare moment, think how your parents might have influenced you in your subsequent choice of career and how good you were at it.
Maybe you went into the family business and excelled at it. Or maybe you had Swinging Sixties parents and rebelled completely and became a librarian.
We all get something from our parents even if it's something to revolt against.
But what about the kids of successful entrepreneurs, the ones who made their own rules, took risks and became millionaires perhaps against the odds? What do they finish up doing?
Do they go into the family business and be content with always being known as junior? Do they finish up being judged against the achievements of their mum or dad?
And given that their own up-bringing was probably quite different from that of their illustrious parent, what drives them to success?
Heather Payton meets the children of four successful entrepreneurs who are all showing entrepreneurial streaks themselves, though not necessarily in the same field that gave their parents fame and fortune.
