I will definitely go for a business, I have to be self employed then I will back it up with crypto trading, am not really the type that really like government job, I don't like to be controlled, I prefer to be the boss, but I can't leave cryptocurrency, so even if am running any business, then I will still be trading and I will be investing in bitcoin.
As much I also wanted to be in business and trade crypto at the same time, I wouldn't leave my 9-5 work if my business is still like in its growth stage. The pride of not being controlled or being your own boss, just like you said, has its own downsides. Once your business starts to show failure, assuming you only own a single business, your chances of being broke just snowballs in an avalanche. It's kinda scary getting broke these days considering that inflation is an ass.
It's not a matter of being controlled or being your own boss, it's about being financially stable. There are still 9-5 works out there that still offer flexibility even if you work under someone just like mine. Corporate jobs aren't that bad at all, but I guess it depends to a lot of people. Another thing worth mentioning is that these days, you almost need to have another source of income so I guess that's where crypto investment/trading comes into place, I guess?
i prefer to focus on things that provide better income,, it can be business or trading,, because according to the fashion that I have that I don't like being under other people or sitting in an office for 6 full days, I can't imagine living like that .. if I do business or trade, it does give a burden on my mind that is no less heavy, but at least I can work freely without the need to be regulated by people and focus on other things that can increase the value of myself,, and that's the life that i want.
Not all office works require you to work for 6 full days. Even after our RTO policy, the office days still remained 5 days with offered flexibility wherein everyone has the choice to at least work from home 2 times per week. This kinda depends on the field though. If you really love what you're doing, then sit shouldn't really matter that much.
