entrepreneur  must  count  among  their  most  cherished  and  important
                abilities.  An  entrepreneur’s  most  important  little  thing  is  to  be  an
                employer  who  provides  jobs  for  people  who  are  hungry  for  security,
                benefits,  and  a  more  promising  future.  It’s  a  massive  responsibility  and

                one  that  Midas  Touch  entrepreneurs  take  very  seriously.  We  understand
                that  losing  a  job  has  the  power  to  rip  out  the  emotional  core  of  an
                employee  and,  in  the  process,  jeopardize  their  family’s  well-being.
                Increased  unemployment  also  affects  the  communities  we  live  in,  our
                nation, and the world.

                The best entrepreneurs believe that the true measure of their success has
                little to do with their wealth or the size of their homes. It has to do with

                the  number  of  jobs  their  business  creates.  Imagine  an  entrepreneur  like
                Steven  Jobs.  His  business  not  only  created  countless  jobs  at  Apple,  but
                also  spurred  hundreds  of  thousands,  if  not  millions,  of  jobs  in  all  the
                industries and businesses that support Apple products. That is the Midas
                Touch.

                We  must  understand  that  governments  cannot  create  real  jobs.  Only

                entrepreneurs can do that. It’s up to all of us to take action and change this
                world for the better.

                                  financial, and business responsibility
