Re: Re: Paging Busted Knuckle Matt
If you can show me where I said it's no different being self employed, I'll Paypal you $100....
If being self employed is so bad, why have so many here chosen that path? No financial ceiling and to be your own boss as a trade off for the risk and stress that comes along with it vs. working for someone else and hustling on the side to supplement income (which is what I'm comparing here, not the guy that works 40 hrs and goes home). My initial claim was that you dont have to be a small business owner to have the same things on your plate like the volatility and heavy responsibility/stress.
I'm not downplaying self employment. My dad was self employed for nearly 40 yrs, now he works for someone else and actually enjoys going to work every day at the ripe age of 64.
The whole "working for yourself is the worst" thing is ridiculous. If it is, why not take an easier route? What makes you go to work every day to that specific job? Can't say "your family", that's a reason for going to work each day at any job. I'm talking about the particular one that you have to sacrifice so much for, that just sucks, and stresses you to the max? If its so bad, then why do it? I refer to the Houdini quote - there are other doors that are unlocked, what makes you continue through the same door each day? There must be some reward, right? Or are we not taking reward into consideration? Because reward IS part of it, it should be discussed as well.
I'm not throwing off on anyone, I am truly interested in the psychological differences of opinion herein this debate. I want to debate the ideas and opinions only. Not directly attack anyone or any of that ****. So lets have a grown up convo about it...should we create a spinoff thread?
