Beyond Hedge Funds and Wall Street: Doing Something You Love

Salman Khan, the Founder of the not-for-profit online tutorial academy, Khan Academy (www.khanacademy.org), talks about why he left the hedge-fund investment business to focus
on Khan Academy, the numbers of tutorials he has currently has, range of subjects, traffic numbers, geographic range and the number of students it reaches.

He also talks about how it is funded, whether it makes any money, how he and his family survives, and why the hell he does it!

He also discusses whether he will ever menetise the site, the fact that it didn't 'feel right'? to accept VC funds, and monetise education.

He also chats about whether he is an anomaly, whether there are others like him, whether people look at him kind of funny. and whether his move represents a kind of social shift that is beginning to reject all that was wrong and immoral about Wall Street into a perhaps more productive and rewarding career.
