A decent salary helps to build a certain standard of living when an entrepreneur starts a business if he does not earn money in a month, it is difficult to maintain his livelihood in that month. Like paying for the car as before petting the driver paying the children's english school fees etc. If the entrepreneur does not have proper knowledge about the work mistakes in his own organization will not only cost but also waste time.

To be honest, I, who am a private employee in a company, can do self-employment while working because to be honest, if I expect a monthly salary, it cannot cover my living expenses, which is already a family. by taking advantage of social media and very limited time I can sell to market the products that I have, even though it's not very profitable but it can cover my needs.

Nothing is more wonderful if someone knows how to take advantage and combine the two. If you can combine the two, you will save a lot of things. Although working as a hired worker does not bring us much money to lead a comfortable life, sometimes the business is not always as profitable as we would like. So if you balance the two then you can be considered a more successful person than a business owner.

The truth is everyone wants to be their own Boss, decide when to work and when not to work , avoiding the 9 hours per day job and most people if given the chance would prefer to work on their own remotely.
It is an easy task to be an entrepreneur if we can all accept this truth especially people who start a business with just a single capital and rely on their daily survival and that of their family from just this single business which we know is the major determinant of business downfall.
Most times while striving as an entrepreneur, I also do wish to just have a good job that maybe could pay upto $2000 in my local currency per month, then I will be glad to do this job because it has to save me from Al the mental stress of bearing the risk of decision making which is a key factor in entrepreneurship because to be an entrepreneur, one must be responsible for every decision you make and be accountable for them.

I think it is the search for the survival to have the food on the table not about having sad or happy
It differs from individuals' situations. There are business people that are happy with what they do and they're going the best for their own businesses. Well, you own a business and you need to be in the best shape to make it a success.
And if people tell them that they're only doing business when they're happy or sad, I don't understand the logic behind that. Unless they've got unlimited resources and they can do whatever they want based on what they feel. I just find it odd if there are people like that.
that is correct for different people the approach is different and people like to experience and practice different thing. So let them enjoy and learn how they want to do things

I think the easiest thing for me who has just graduated from school is an office job, and I have been working in the office for about 8 months even with a small salary, of course I plan to become Entrepreneurship if I already have good capital and skills so I can be successful and not tied anymore with routine and working hours.
I did office job for around 16 years and during COVID - I was jobless.
It was very tough time - and I started my small ventures - they are not big profits but they are not loss either. So I prefer small personal ventures with office jobs.

Wow, that was a lot of experience but still ended up losing it. I also work at an office job for 3 years only, but this really hurt me a lot since my family depends on me at that time, and it is a pandemic. I am glad I could still find another work at that time. I am amazed that you take the risk to have a small business though it is a pandemic; whether your profit is small, it is still a good start, and I am sure that in a few months or years, you will be big time. For now, I will stick to a job since we need money every month, and taking a risk, like putting up a business, is risky since if it fails, we don't have anything to eat.
having a wide experience is an edge but people here think that one should stick to one job and keep moving at the snail pace .
For some people like myself it is very difficult to stick to one thing

I hope so - I went through the same and started two small ventures - one of my airbnb business and other is home based nursery both  are flourishing at the small pace but they are enough to pull me out of depression.
When I am upset I go to my garden and when I am sad - I go to my Airbnb property clean it and decorate it. Noone is there to stop me what I want to do. So I am just surviving my own isolated battle
It can only become a habit of yours when you are sad or happy, even if you call it a small business, because for me that kind of thing is not a business because it can only be entertainment when you are sad or happy. It's not wrong to open a small business from a habit that we like every day because it will be more fun, but for me personally if business is only about entertaining myself, then I prefer to open a cafe on the beach by seeing a wider view every day.

Most of the time and this what matter the most and also you cant really be always having the thing that you wanted which means that you wont really be having no choice but to deal on what you are currently dealing with, it doesnt matter if you do like the job or not specially if there are mouths which you do really need to feed.It is true that being on comfort zones doesnt always mean that it would be always a good choice.
Some are really just having that ego that they dont really deserve on the current position that they are in but if they do tend to look around in speaking about unemployment then they
should really consider themselves to be lucky.

If possible having the blend of the combination of the two is a good advice, working as an entrepreneur and also being under the office job, this will help yo gather every required momentum to speed up your own enterprise into full take off whenever you're set for a launch, the experience you would have acquired is the highest and best benefit that can help sustain your own business as well, even though this might comes in with it own challenges, but at the end we all ended as an entrepreneur well established in our own business and not office job anymore.

That is really the cue to look for a better opportunity. Your self-employment should be able to sate your wants while your full time can handle your needs even if there is nothing left in your earnings monthly.
Freelancing would be really a great way to somehow start something in the side, but first I would say that you should look for a better alternative first since there might be cases that your self-employment would just be really dry and you would not have any clients to work with, therefore you ain't going to earn a single penny.
If you had your full time at that time, you would still be able to pay your monthly bills while looking for another freelancing gigs to get another stream of income for unlike in a scenario wherein you do not have a full time work, but then one day your self-employment career became dry, it would be a horrible and stressful situation to be at.

I have not worked in the office since the end of 2017 because at that time I had a business, namely a supplier of fruit, onions and garlic, the business was going well and made me get a big profit so I could buy a house, apartment and around 12 employees, but after the covid making social restrictions and high operational costs made me stop since 2020 and now only have 5 employees.

Covid did make everything chaotic, I also lost my job because of a very bad company condition, I tried to open a restaurant but bankrupt, now I rely on income from daily home and apartment rental, I contacted the property owner and offers cooperation for daily rental and happy Can get good results.

The pandemic has a huge impact on our lives and made us lose even our jobs and businesses. However, we're rising and moving forward so it's the best time to choose a source of income based on our skills. I personally prefer doing an office job because I have tried doing different types of businesses before but still failed. I guess I couldn't find my luck in entrepreneurship. It's still a good time to put up a business because we're already in the recovery period. As long as you know how to handle your finances and deal with the risks of entrepreneurship then better try it.

What do you think is the way forward?
Now the world recognizes that the economy is in trouble, it doesn't only impact entrepreneurship or office jobs, the two economic sources have different definitions, that's for sure.
• Entrepreneurship: With the current economic situation, you can still do business where people need it every day. You can turn to other businesses such as restaurants, livestock, aquaculture, etc. In my opinion these businesses are still thriving and busy, even though the economy is currently declining, however, it is a business, necessity.
• Office Work: the definition is that there are two government offices or private offices, when talking about private offices, of course currently many countries are laying off their employees for sales/economic reasons, maybe the current situation is not good for working in private offices.

Conclusion: private office and entrepreneurship with current conditions, the right choice is entrepreneurship you can have a career and make money depending on the business you do.

Same likewise I lost my job some few months before COVID but the good thing that helped me was my poultry off growing thousands of birds helped as well with the delivery of those manures and waste dump's gotten from the bird's. It was hectic though but having daily profits trump's office jobs pre- COVID, during Covid and after COVID, there's no way you can settle for office jobs alone.
Yes, but there are people who are really that having ego on not to take those kind of dirty type of business or jobs because its not really something appealing to look at but on general sense
which these things could really save you up on times of hardship specially if it does talk about having an income or salary.Its up to someones choice on where he would be able to survive on everyday living.
Not all does really have the opportunity nor have the position on acquiring up these things on point on the time of problems.The main goal or mindset should we have is to survive our self
and also with our loved ones and trying to achieve on life which doesnt have problems when it comes to finances.
