If you belong to one of those families that own a business, you might want to take it over at some point. The question you should ask yourself is whether you want to take over your family business or do you want to start your own business at some point. It will all depend of what you prefer to do. If your family has been doing for years something you find interest in, you might want to become part of it. On the other hand, if you have no interest in your family business whatsoever, I suggest that you do not force yourself to do something you might not like doing. You will never be a good businessman if you decide to do something you do not like doing.
