fontrepreneur

A newbie trying to market unique typefaces.

Arial and Times New Roman are really all we need for ordinary printed text; why do all of these fontrepreneurs feel da need to come along and add even more styles to our already-yards-long list of possible typefaces???

Contrepreneur 

A con artist who makes their fortune by fooling wantrepreneurs into thinking they're getting a great deal or coming into some easy money when the reality is it's the contrepreneur making the real money.

nontrepreneur

A person who claims to be self-employed, a small business owner, or an entrepreneur, but really just sits around all day thinking about those things. Nontrepreneurs frequently boast about "flexible" work hours, being their own boss, and not working for "the man." However, unlike entrepreneurs, they rarely start profitable businesses that provide a valuable good or service to the economy. Instead, they usually get wrapped up in pyramid schemes.

Successful person: "Hi, I'm Jim. I am a journalist. What do you do for a living?"
Nontrepreneur: "Hi, Jim. I'm sorry to hear that. While you were at the office today, I was on the beach taking a break from work. I am able to do that because I run my own company, and don't have to be a part of the ratrace like everyone else. My earnings potential is unlimited. If you have a few minutes, I'd like to discuss an opportunity for you to change your life forever - but you have to act now, or you might miss out."

nontrepreneur

a 'company man' devoid of any entreprenurial spark who prefers the 'punching a time-clock' approach to work over taking any ownership

A great scene in True Detective is when Kohle calls out the two Detectives as 'a couple of company' men unable to think for themselves. He sees them as textbook nontrepreneurs.

funtrepreneur 

Starting a company for the sake of being an "entrepreneur", or tax credits, yet not doing anything of value. Funtrepreneurs love to pitch others on The Idea, blame external forces for lack of progress and lurk around for years before disappearing into obscurity.
