My friend's story sends me a signal: no matter how much I earn right now, try to keep my job and souce of income stable. I am also a family man and have responsibilities. Anything bad can also happen to me so I have to be prepared to the unforseen problems, although I am doing fine now. Make hay while the sun shines. If you have any advice for my friend, please let me know. Thank you.
That's why if you have a family or have a responsibility, don't just focus on one job. Because if you only focus on one job and don't have a business or expertise in other fields, when the company goes bankrupt or gets fired, you will definitely feel confused about finding a new job again. But it's different if you have a business or useful skills, when the company where you work has problems or is fired, you definitely won't be too confused about income, because you have a business that is already running and controlled. To start, you don't need to have a very large business, the most important thing is that you already have income and can be developed.
So the term is don't be monotonous and just stay silent when you have a job. Even though it must be packed with work schedules, try to start something new on the sidelines of the busy work. Want it to open a shop, or with other fields. And don't forget to keep saving and investing, because I consider these two factors important and mandatory in my life, and will definitely come in handy in emergencies.
With life getting more and more difficult, the cost of living is increasing day by day, and having a source of income can never be guaranteed, even if it is a high income. Indeed, we should have 2 to 3 sources of income these days because the unexpected can happen at any time. Although it will take us longer and be more tiring, for the sake of our families and to ensure the safety of our families, we need to make sacrifices.
No matter what job we do, we can't do it all our life, when we get old, no one will hire us, or we will no longer have the strength to do it. So I also agree with you, any man should have savings and investments. It is a must have, and it will be beneficial when we are old and can no longer work.
