Was George Washington an Entrepreneur? (with John Berlau)
b'As we round the 4th of July holiday, we\'ve all celebrated George Washington as the first President of the United States, the general who lead the Continental Army against the British, and the second or third most popular character in the Broadway play "Hamilton." However, did you ever think of George Washington as an entrepreneur? Economist John Berlau has thought about that AND how Washington\'s entrepreneurship aspirations molded both his vision as a future leader, and our country. Today he\'s with us to share stories from Washington\'s life, including how he became an entrepreneur, and some of his most prominent contributions to our country.
