A recent Junior Achievement survey found that the top three career choices for teens are businessperson, doctor, and teacher. Funny, our not-so-scientific survey of teens we know says trust-fund slacker, overpaid celebrity, and professional beer drinker.
Either way, the next generation could learn a thing or two from Dogfish Head Craft Brewery founder Sam Calagione as he discusses his career and his new book, Brewing Up a Business: Adventures in Entrepreneurship from the Founder of Dogfish Head Craft Brewery.
