It is good to be a self-employed individual if you have a huge capital saved in the bank or fund. What if none, hunger will be inevitable . It is not only huner but bills monthly that soar up nonstop.
That's right I agree with you. If we don't have the capital and don't have the skills to support working in other people's places, then we can offer the services of working as it is, the important thing is to get money. Don't be too picky about work. That's what I did when I just graduated from school, I accept whatever job is offered to me as long as I get a decent salary.
That is good, in fact, after I graduated from college, the next day, I was hired by Electrolux hehehe and I met many new graduates. we had some fun selling Electrolux products. My salary was small, only 8,000 or $175, but there were lots of fun.
Indeed, for children who have just graduated from school, the most important thing is that they seek work experience first. While saving some of the money he got. I also like that the money I get from work I use to build a business, with the experience of selling online and offline that I got at my previous job. So, it's like I take a course but get paid. LOL
I only work in Elecgrolux for 2 months because I was hired to teach by 7 schools, gosh. I dispatched 20 application letters and 7 wanted to hire me. I chose the best university owned by the national government which I am in now.
That's right I agree with you. It is true that it is not mandatory, because not everyone is interested and has the ability to do business. If he has no interest in doing business, he will not be comfortable with the business he is doing, and will often fail because he is not serious about running his business.
Self employment is wishful and not necessary. It can only become fulfilled if you have skills and resources. Remember it not all self employment that becomes successful. Consequently, you should not quit your business because of the aim to establish your self business. Ensure you are fully ready before embarking in it.
That's right I agree with you. Many people want to be entrepreneurs even though they don't have the skills, experience, capital, and knowledge to support building their business. They rush to leave a fixed job in order to build their own business, and they often fail.
They think that entrepreneurship would be a quick escape route from poverty and most times business would sap the little money that you have without giving you anything for the first 3 months of the business.
That's right I agree with you. That is the wrong mindset, a businessman should not think that their business can get rid of poverty quickly. Because to achieve success in business requires a process and time that is not short.
In my country, the proportion of people in salaried employment is very low, compared to those working in the informal sector. A large bulk of those in the informal sector are self-employed.
This scenario underlines the importance of self-employment in enabling a person to earn a livelihood.

In as much as I'm a fan of self employment, but I still feel some people are not just designed to be self employed, they tend to function maximally when they are employee or when they're working under someone else. But if one discovers that self employment is suitable for the person, it will be very good for the person to go ahead with it and build from scratch.

You get the point very right, there are thousands of self employed individuals who are still living life from hand to mouth, at least I have seen a handful of them, but that doesn't mean that we don't have self employed individuals who are living their dream life.

That's right I agree with you. Indeed, not everyone can afford to be self-employed, they usually prefer to be employees with a fixed salary every month. They have low interest in going into business and tend to be afraid to take risks.
This is easier said than done. It is assumed that self employment is very convenient and comfortable. Until when you start it before you got to know that self employment takes much of your time and attention than when you are employed.
Self employment has its advantages and disadvantages. First of all it gives one the flexibility of managing yourself and the most drawbacks for it is that it's not a reliable source of income as it can be shared by the natural calamities like the COVID-19 and others.
