A sample of Czech entrepreneurs (n = 222) was compared to the population sample with respect to subjective health status, stress-buffering factors, and health-related behaviors. Our findings show that 1) entrepreneurs assess their health state more favorably and 2) have a higher level of health-protective factors at their disposal in comparison with the population sample. However, their health behavior is rather poor in comparison with that of the population at large.
