QUIZ: Which Business Tycoon Are You Most Like?

Are you more like Zuckerberg or Huffington?

HAVE YOU EVER thought of an idea and wondered why no one else has ever made it come to life?

Or maybe you love creating things yourself, and often lose hours tweaking and trying out new creations.  

Whether you’re a whizz at coding, you know how to always find a good deal, or you used to stand on your street as a kid trying to sell passers-by your ‘perfume’, there’s a business person in all of us.

And while you might have a million-euro idea, it’s knowledge of the industry and learning how to run a business that can turn it into something tangible. 

So, which business tycoon are you? Take our quiz below to find out.
