i have always wanted my own business. for as long as i can remember. i wanted to see my ideas come to live. even if sometimes it seems a little bit out of this world. (though nowadays my ideas are more grounded... i think i only get out-of-this-world kinda ideas when i'm stressed out, or when i have no time to pursue them)...
then just a couple of days ago, i met this fella who seems pretty knowledgeable. and so i ask the question that i have asked a couple of hundred ppl... "knowing what u know now, if u are brought back to x number of years, when you were still working for another person.... would you have quit corporate world, and do your own business? or would you have stayed on?"
he says he would have still made his exit. because he does not like the politics one has to face when in corporate. he would also have left because he wanted the work life balance he has, the freedom to choose how hard he work. but he says... to be rich... the certain route will be to work higher management in corporate world. then invest the money saved in properties. due to low likelihood of a business surviving nowadays...
sounds reasonable.
but i still want my own business. time to re-read blue ocean strategy...
anyways, business and investment is not mutually exclusive rite? all the wise ppl out there... what say u?
