one of the draws of thievery is that it is a profession for the renaissance man and also the profession for those who can look outside the box to solve a problem. the best way to get into a place is to use a method no one who designed the security system would have thought of.

I'm betting that a lot of people who make good thieves are also the kind who would make good entrepreneurs.

Be careful not to confuse common thievery with the Hollywood style, or the occasional case like this one.

The vast majority of thievery is simply bashing car windows or taking advantage of naivete.

Be careful not to confuse common entrepreneurism with tech start-ups. The vast majority of business startups are landscaping and snow-plow services or dry cleaning store-fronts ;-)
