I was taught that the “higher the risk, the higher the rate” when it comes to investing. Entrepreneurs risk a lot – often mortgaging their homes to get the capital they need to start or keep a new business afloat. They’re also the ones who provide the most jobs for those of us not willing to take that type of risk, work the long hours, or have the headaches that come with getting a business to become successful. Why shouldn’t they be rewarded for that, if they’ve earned it?
