I prefer calculated risk. What about you @serhii_uspenskyi ?
@rahul_choudhary17 I have already had both experiences and I would choose stability)

Quite a tricky questions. I guess it all come down to the state of your mental-health as an employee, which comes down to this question: does your job allow you to learn a lot, or earn a lot? If none of these, it's probably time to change. Want to earn more? Find another job as an employee. Want to learn more? Take the entrepreneurial path, as a founder or co-founder. I had a stable and well paid software engineer job for a French startup. But felt unhappy, something was missing. I quit after 6 months and booked a 1-way ticket to Asia to start my journey as an `IndieHacker`, with almost no money aside, few months ago. I'm now in Bali, living in hostels for $5/night, working from places with rice field views and swimming pools, amongst a population of entrepreneurs and digital nomads, I've not much money (yet 😇) but damn, never learn that much: working on my own products and meeting interesting people. Bottom line, follow your gut, and go for what seems to be the best journey for your mind. ✌️
@maelus thanls for the story!

Ha ha, I think we all have chosen the risky path already!! 🙌
@shabnam_katoch thanks for the reply) Why do you think so?) E.g. I`m working mostly as an employee with only some % of co-founder path) How about your feelings on your job?

I’d get experience in the field for certain years, then founders journey all the way. Teaches you to enjoy life as well
@prashasti_pankaj wow, cool! And what do you think is better for you?)

One of both, Or both in one - the the steady risk-taker who always plays with house money! Let’s be real, there’s probably an AI platform already in existence that can function as the stable employee in most professions🤔
@joseph_ryan00 thanks for your thoughts:)

Start as an employee, build a skill, find a problem, and solve it in the wild.
@nick_trierweiler1 sounds like a great plan!

I'd rather try and fail than not try at all. If I can look back on my life and see I did everything I could, it will be a good life.
@edward_g great! Agree, it’s always worth trying something you wish)
