Typical Entrepreneur Profile: Whats yours?

I came across an interesting post about the typical profile of the tech entrepreneur in the US
A Profile of the US tech entrepreneur
It highlights some interesting statistics about tech-entrepreneurs:
- Most start their companies around age 39
- 92 % received a bachelors degree, 30 % masters and 10 % ph.ds.
- 45 % start their firm in the same state that they received their degree
- Most start ups averaged a revenue of $5.7 million and employed around 42 workers.
I am in my early 30s, and hold a masters degree, but have moved away from the state where i earned my degree. I don’t live in the silicon valley, nor am i in a city well known for tech startups.
Whats your profile? I would love to hear your comments on your background, what age you started your company etc..
