Entrepreneur Vs Employee, What would you choose and why?

I worked in various roles in my life as an employee vs. entrepreneur and have had success either way. Given an option, I would always want to be an entrepreneur, as the option to create something amazing gives me immense satisfaction. Let me know your thoughts

I will choose an entrepreneur because I love how I get paid to self improve

@edun_kerry Yes thats the case as well

I am sure you can create amazing things and have a freedom of choice with a good team and be an employee.

@alexander_chernikov1 If you are a creator then u can never be an employee

@murali_aasaan Then it's just the way people think of themselves :)

Being an entrepreneur is rewarding, but there are very real tradeoffs, and it's not for everyone. I think spending a few months as a freelancer is a low-risk way of seeing how you feel about being a founder. Freelancers are solopreneurs in every sense of the word. You need to do sales, marketing, operations, taxes, accounting, finance...plus the actual freelance work you're getting paid to do. If you don't enjoy the ups and downs of being a freelance developer, designer, marketer, whatever...then it's unlikely you're going to enjoy being a founder!!

@gavin_yerxa The tradeoff is financial security and other things

The bigger the risk, the greater the reward, of course, the entrepreneur. But all this depends on your ability to secure the necessary living conditions for your family

@oe_zheng yeah risk vs reward

I want to be an entrepreneur when I'm 30 - 32. Right now. I'm completely satisfied with learning the ropes, wish me luck!

I choose to be an "entreployee" – an entrepreneur disguised as an employee, so I can have the best of both worlds! 😎
