Small Business Owners Are the Happiest

I think people will either be really surprised or not fazed at all by the findings of the survey featured in this Wall Street Journal article I read on smSmallBiz.com.

According to the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index, which studied how one's occupation affects their happiness, business owners outrank 10 other occupational groups in overall well-being.

I fall into the not-surprised-at-all category when I read this. Sure, business ownership is tough, and it's probably never been tougher than right now, but I know from talking to all of the small business owners I've interviewed the past six years, there's nothing better.
