According to a study, most millionaires have 7 different ways to make money, in other words, they have multiple income sources and if one stops making money, they still have 6 other ways to rely on. When you have a job, you have just one income source, if you are removed from the job, you will lose income source. With a regular job, you're putting all your eggs in one basket. That's not very safe.

You are right it is good to create opportunities for oneself in many places Incase one collapse that is why most people have another small work apart from the salary work

There are pros and cons of having a job vs self-employed. If you have a job, you can stable monthly income and other fringe benefits such as paid leave, health insurance. On the other hand, if you are self-employed, you can be your own boss and making money your own way. Having a job plus other side hustles can be an alternative.

True, jobs can bring you a regular income but financial security as you will have regular flow of money. You can continue to generate income without worrying about the other things. Business is risky

I prefer self-employment because it gives you opportunity to make more money and you also become your a boss . You can also make your decision count if you own your business.

It depends though, I know some persons who have a job but still have other streams of income. Like working online or having side gigs that they make money from by the side.

For me I would always go for self employment as you would be able to run the business just the way you want it which is great

In as much as I am an entrepreneur, I don't talk down on people that have jobs. All are good and can make you rich if you follow a path.
Having a feasible business is not bad to be self-employed. If I were in such a situation, I can startup a small-scale business and still work in a company.
