There will be nothing more that government employees can hope for until the end of their lives except the basic salary and pension salary which is only enough to consume each month. Meanwhile, the instinct of humans is of course to always really want to develop in their lives by earning more income, even though they have to do their own business even though their position is also as a government employee.

Because working in the government is usually only half a day and not a full day, every government employee should use the other half day for his own business if he still wants to earn more income for his life without depending on just one income, namely his basic salary in the government or his retirement salary when his term of service is over.

Pension depends on the level or rank in your position in government because most of the government workers today I have found within my locality has been poor after leaving offices and can't account for any tangible thing they have don with pension, they are also being sustain by there children. The best is having a self made work that is, becoming a business owner which makes you totally independent and can also employed more workers to expand personal business.

But a government employee will miss out on bigger opportunities, like earning millions of dollars like Cristiano Ronaldo or potentially amassing vast wealth like Bill Gates and others. It's true they don't get a retirement fund until they pass away, but they already have a lot of money while working, which is more than enough to live on even without a pension.

Being an employee is indeed straightforward because it doesn't involve business growth. Employees are just programmed to follow orders, and that's why, to this day, the creativity of entrepreneurs excels over most employees. I don't mean to belittle the existence of employees, but I just want to offer a different perspective from what you're talking about.

It depend on what country you live on. Promotions on a government position is harder that you are expecting. It's either you need to be that exceling enough or you need some backer to help you get a promotion.

At the end of the day both being a employee and a business owner has it's own cons, both can make you rich depending on your own effort. It's just that we people see different opportunities from it depending on our perspective and our environment. Personally, there's nothing wrong being an employee as long as you are earning a good amount of money. Having a business is good too as long as you know what you are doing and you have the passion in order to grow the business and make it survive. It all depend on us on what is our preference.

If you become a government employee, you will continue to use the salary even higher with the increase in rank and high position.
and until old age will still be guaranteed because they get a pension every month.

Some people choose to have a job that earns a steady income because they will be able to easily manage the expenses they need, but for those who choose to work like that, I think it will be very difficult for them to earn additional income because the place they work of course has working hours. which requires work, in other words, we are very tied up and it is very difficult to find additional income.

I agree with you, having a salaried job or a permanent job will prevent us from being able to earn the income we want. This is very different from freelancing which is not tied to anything, we can work whatever we can to get the income we want. want and this is really very enjoyable and if we want a lot of income of course we have to be able to work hard to be able to have a lot of income.

You got a valid point, for someone who don't have money to start a business or an investment, no other option but to work with someone
who can pay them and give them the chance to explore.

By experienced and by the money that they save, if the person is really aiming to own his business or he's seeing that he really good
in doing something to earn.

He can start then establishing a business on his own and if fate decided to support him, he may find that success.

Yes, it is like a bondage. But sometimes it is a blessing. What I mean in essence is that, for those persons who just graduated and want to start a life. Since they do not have the capital to start a business or they are new in labor market. They can start by working for someone for some period to gather money. If the person is wise, with good managerial knowledge he would be able to save up to start a business or learn a skill. After that, he may set up his workspace or office and start rendering his services to people.

Now you see that working for someone can either be a curse or a blessing. It all depends on the one the individual chooses.

Owning a business is hard. Stressful? Absolutely. Let's discuss prizes. Success isn't simply about money; it's about building something. It's valuable. Of course, not everyone can do it. It's okay if some people like 9-to-5s. Different strokes for different people. You want financial freedom? Bitcoin is the solution. The change in money thinking goes beyond currency. It's explosive, but isn't life? Understand it, support it, and see it operate. You must play intelligently and think long-term.

Business or Bitcoin, the premise is the same. You must consider your options, take reasonable risks, and commit. Success is earned, not given. The work is worth it when you get there. It's what makes the journey worthwhile.

As workers, it will make us more comfortable in living this life because there is a certainty that we will get money within a certain period, but as you said, your income will be very limited and will only increase if you want to work harder by accepting the offer of extra time, meaning there is time and energy that must be sacrificed, while as a businessman the income will be unlimited but we must remember that business sometimes does not always run smoothly, there are challenges that can sometimes make us go bankrupt, but if you want to get unlimited income then doing business is the choice and if you want to live more calmly, being a worker who receives a salary is a choice and both have advantages and disadvantages, and nothing is better because not everyone will be suitable to be a businessman and vice versa.

Just that sometime in life working as a salary earner is just like a work of boundage that you can be earning the same amount of salary for a long time and if at all it is increased due to promotion their won't be much difference. One can just remain here all through hus/her career receiving peanut while their are better things that one can do with it his/ her life to grow financially to make good amount money. I don't Really like salary jobs because it can close the doors for other opportunities to make money.

Everyone would really be that choosing up on the things on which we know that it could bring out that kind of financial freedom or stability and this is why even if owning a business would be somewhat not that simple
or having that kind of stress then it would really be just that something that we do prefer in the end of the day. Yes, it is really that stressful but something that very rewarding once you do be able to succeed.
We are all hoping on living a life to have that financial freedom and even if being a business owner would be that stressful then it is really that worth it once you do be able to handle it out and this something that
everyone would really be that preferred. Its understandable and its something that normal that opportunities and conditions would really differ into each other.

There are really just those people who dont really love on getting that stress and this is why they do much prefer on being an employee rather than on a business owner but well we do have our own personal
choice considering that life situations and preference will really be that basing up into our minds on which we do see that we do prefer and like the most. It is really just that impossible
that we cant be able to distinguish about the opportunity that it gives though.

The decision to look for an already existing job or to create one is hinged on so many factors and depends a lot on the circumstances peculiar to the individual in question.

Starting a new business or brand requires that you've hard experienced in the field so as to help you thrive well, if you are just starting life and if you're still very young, it could be advisable to work for someone for a while is you can get the needed skill and experience that is needed to enable you thrive well when you eventually start up your own business.

Finance could also be a serious factor because if you don't have enough capital, you might need to work for someone just so you can raise the capital needed to enable you start the business.

But the most important thing is to adj yourself the question if it is necessary to even start a business of your own or not, sometimes it's not too necessary to start up a business even when you have the capital, you could invest into things or buy the service of others to do version things for you while they pay you regularly for it.

As a small business owmer, I stand by my own choice and I think it's far more superior to being an employee
I've tried both and even though my company is just a bit over a year old it has made me far better results.

Both paths have ups and downs, for an example being an employee is much safer and comfortable to an average person. You only worry about how you perform and does the check come in on time. There is opportunity for progress and growth but it is very limited considering the possibilities when being a business owner.

If you have a solid business plan and experience in a field, you could make a far larger amount of money and have more freedom with your time and working ethics. It does come with more stress and headache and sometimes far more than 8h daily work but financial stability is a must.

honestly if im being honest, it depends on the money earned, if i can get good revenue i would go all in business but if the revenue is not much and i can get more by being employed then being an employee is not wrong.
its less mentally exhausting, and also you don't need to think so much about the business just do what you're told and you are done, there might be some hurdle like overly competitive working environment where its just one wronging the other but thats kinda fine the stress isn't as heavy as starting out the business, because lets be frank here, business is harder than most people think, its managing, discipline, and also a little bit of gambling, some people might find business thrilling because they really trying to find some excitement in life but some people are already mentally burdened enough that they just don't have the capability to start out some business.
thats why if thats the case with being an employee and a business owner, i would base it from the money i could get.

Of course I would choose to be a business owner.  Because it is better to become the owner of an organization and provide employment to others than to work under the control of Karo.  However, it is not so easy to set up a successful business.  It is very difficult. But in life you have to take risks.  And I think you should be an entrepreneur yourself, be it a small business.  I hope small business will grow one day if afforded

I agree. Sometimes specially the modern day era, those who has acces to capital has the higher chance of having successful business because they can start any time they want compared to those people who's problem is the capital itself. The only problem here is that are these people ready to really start a business or they're just doing it because that is what their friends did as well? I prefer to be an investor of course I just need some capital.

Entrepreneurs are excessively occupied and are frequently worried. Becoming an employee is less complicated and simpler. All that is required of us is to report to duty, complete our regular duties within the company, and then head home. And enjoy the rest days with our family.

But this is only applicable if you are employed in a company with big compensation and benefits. Living in Europe, North America, Australia, and East Asia, you are adequately blessed because they have big standards for their employees. Because of this, many want to work in these areas.

I would rather be an employee than a business owner.
As an employee, the income is certain and regular.
whereas a business owner can lose in running a business and must think about his business so that it develops and does not experience losses.

I am wondering why someone will choose being an employee. I think I’ve seen a similar post and I’ll say the same thing I said there. I’ll forever choose being the business owner because you cannot employ someone and pay what your business isn’t generating. So for you to pay the employee, you must have made that money from your business. Now, in a case where you aren’t making that money yet and the employee is making more than the company, you at least have the potential to grow your business and make it stand out. This way you are increasing the amount you make. As an employee that isn’t the same case because you can be placed on the same salary for years but the company is making lots of money and even growing but your own cut is static.
