A scientist and businessman? That's rare.

In a way I am, I am a Chemical Engineer (graduated and passed Licensure examination) and got to work in that industry only for few years. That's why my interests in science and technology never really gone out of me.
After that I had a business of my own but eventually closed after 7 years of operation (prodigal living :))

Oh I see... lol. No experience is wasted I guess.

yes... it made me a better man.
