Using data from the 1979-98 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY), this report examines the long-term earnings patterns of young disadvantaged business owners and makes comparisons to young wage/salary workers. The analysis focuses on several disadvantaged groups -- less educated young men and women, blacks, and Hispanics. All of these groups have relatively low earnings in the labor market, limited financial resources, and low rates of business ownership.
