Is SAFE a new RISKY?
This question is about is safe a new risky. What do I
mean?
Well, what I mean is comparison between being employed in a job and being
entrepreneur and running your own business. So when we compare the two before,
safe option was always having a job. When you have a job, you have a guaranteed
salary, you have a guaranteed income, it's a secure place for you where you can
work all of your life until you retire and it will pay you your pension and
everything. So that was a safe option. And the risky option was building your
own business, becoming an entrepreneur and all of that, but the more the times
are changing, the more economies changing, the more I start realizing that the
safe is the new risky because if you think about it, the days of you starting a
job and working in that job from 16 years old, until you are 70 years old are
gone.
Like most people don't get to work in the same job for that long because
the companies are changing and things like that. So we always changing the
jobs, etcetera, but more than that, the realization is that if you're an
entrepreneur, if you're a business owner and you had a bad day, or you had a
bad week, you can go, “Oh my gosh, this week was slow week, we didn't have enough
sales, we need to do something.”
So you when things are not happening the way they're
supposed to, you know when things are not going well in your business straight
away, which means you can do something about it, you can act on it and you can
fix the situation straight away, but if you're in a job and you're working for
a million dollar a pound Corporation, the problem is that you don't even know
when the things are going downhill. You know what I mean? So if you work as a
little piece of that massive Corporation, nobody's going to come to you, the
general manager is not going to come to you and go, “Oh, by the way, our sales
haven't been great, globally, this quarter, we might be doing some cutbacks.”
No, what happens is, you get a letter, or you get a
manager going, “Hey, unfortunately, we have to let you go.” That's when you
find out that they are basically making people redundant, they're firing
people, because it's already too late to change anything, because the company
is so huge if they lost millions last quarter, it's game over, somebody has to
go and a bunch of people get fired, a bunch of shops gets closed, a bunch of
departments get downsized and so on, you know what I mean? So when you're an
employee, you actually have no control. Even if you wanted to help the company,
you can't, because you don't even know what's happening. If you're working as a
cashier in testicles, you don't know what the global sales are; you don't know
how the branch is doing. Nobody's even telling you that stuff. Until one day,
they just come in as well. So are we closing the shop, and that's it, you're
out of work.
So what used to be safe option now is becoming more risky. Because
you don't even control your situation, you don't even know what's happening
when you are part of big huge company as an employee. But when you are an
entrepreneur, when you running your own business, at least you know what's
happening, at least you're in control of, hey, I want to make more money, I
need to make more sales, I need to work harder over the next week or month or
whatever. So you’re controlling where your income is going you control and
nobody can fire you. If you're running your own business nobody can come to you
one day and go, “Hey, unfortunately, we have to let you go.” That can’t happen
because you’re employing yourself you are in control of your business. You know
what I mean? So if you're doing the work, you're driving your business, then
there's no way why you should ever be at risk. So that's just a thought to
think about.
