Inventing a job is just like being self-employed and it makes you become independent, further create jobs for others and helps you have more time for yourself and hence become more productive and valuable to the society which comes through acquisition of a skill, But the system of education we have today has made it in such a way that people will tend to rely on finding job opportunities without creating or inventing one. With the fast-growing population of the world and where the unemployment rate has risen and more and more graduates are produced each year, job creation is simply the best option.
@Franctoshi, You are right with everything you have said, but for the statement I bolded, I basically think that it depends on the region where someone comes from; that's what will actually make them feel oriented, convinced, influenced, and filled with enthusiasm to create a job and be self-employed rather than depending on a white collar job.
Let me digress a little. While I was younger, I engaged in learning a trade, and the reason why I picked interest in it was because my grandmother was a trader, and each time she comes back from her business, she always counts a lot of money, and sometimes I will help her count. We count a lot of money every day, and it made me always have the thought of being in the same position where I will be doing my own business and getting a continuous inflow and outflow of cash every day.
After I graduated from the university some years ago, I quickly jumped into my own business with the money I saved up and also with the help I got from my relatives.
Today I am running my business. Despite that it's a furniture business I am doing, I don't sell every day, but any time I sell, I get a significant profit.
So, what actually gave me the zeal to start a business was because my grandma was doing and making money on a daily basis, so I just thought it'd be wise for me to be in the same position instead of having to work for 27–30 days before I receive payment. Some people come from a family or region where they are only convinced to go to school, grab some degrees, and look for a job, while some companies where they will still work are owned by someone who doesn't have many degrees like them (the employees).
