Mahwah NJ, Ramapo College of New Jersey has once again been named to Forbes’ America’s Best Colleges for 2024, retaining its top 10 national ranking for public medium-sized schools. Only 500 four-year schools were selected after careful review of data points that include alumni salary, student debt load, graduation rate, return on investment, retention rate, and Forbes American Leaders List.
Ridgewood NJ, When the founders of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity (Laffer, Kudlow, Forbes, and Moore) advised Donald Trump back in 2016 on tax reform, we recommended a 20% corporate tax rate, because the U.S. rate of 40% (when including state taxes) was the highest in the world. This incentivized capital to flow out of the U.S. to leverage lower tax rates in Europe and Asia.
“Hi everyone! I wanted to share a “good news” story about one of Ridgewood’s graduates, Ashley Eapen, who was recently interviewed by FORBES about her In/Spree App, which is changing how people can shop (since “it takes a village”, I thought our village would like to know about the good one of our own is doing). She managed to juggle starting this up while finishing her senior year of high school (I was her teacher, and she asked me to share this :). PLEASE take a moment to share and support our local girl! So proud of this talented, driven, creative, gifted young woman!” Kristine
How Two Entrepreneurs Leveraged Their Youth As A Strength, Not A WeaknessMatt Hunckler
CONTRIBUTOR
For many young founders, youth works against them. Seasoned investors want to work with entrepreneurs who have started and sold numerous businesses. Entrepreneurs who have been in the startup trenches. Entrepreneurs who know how to ride out the troughs and crests of the entrepreneurial journey. Young founders often find it difficult to secure funding.
This harsh reality makes the success of young Brendan and Ashley Eapen all the more surprising. The entrepreneurial duo recently made news by raising $250,000 to fund their new app In/Spree, which makes it possible for users to follow their favorite fashion influencers and then purchase clothes directly within the app.
