Comment on 17 year old Ray Kurzweil on "I've Got a Secret" (1965)

Having lived in three parts of the world (USA, Germany, Hungary, being hungarian), let me tell you, this is one of the things that make America a great place today: embracing innovation, entrepeneurship and taking risks.

In many countries, if you tell your parents and friends you're going to quit your job and start a company, they'll tell you you're crazy. That's what they told me. The USA is much more embracing towards entrepeneurial attitudes.

To be fair, they'll say the same thing in most parts of the US but they will be more supportive. :)
