Do you feel that you've been burgled?

Everyone has in some way or another. If you have ever been employed someone else, you have no doubt been stripped of value. If you have ever had a job, *I guarandamntee you* that you've had complaints about it. If you have a job, whether you like your boss or not, he or the bosses over him are stealing your money. Yes they are. It's not just the taxes that are deducted from your check. It's your wages that are being compromised. In other words, are you really being payed what you feel you're worth. Even if you make six fgures on a salaried job, if you stop clocking in, you stop getting paid.


Think about it and you'll see that it just doesn't make sense. Let's say you continue to pursue jobs, you'll continue to have income, but you won't have revenue. The difference is income is for employees and revenue is for business. I don't know about you all, but I'd prefer revenue. The mental conditioning that people go through thinking that a job is the way to go for the rest of their lives. I have had a few jobs myself, but always felt that something was wrong with it. The reason why I felt something was wrong was because money was being earned but it wasn't nearly enough.

I firmly believe that most people have more value, regardless of how they look on paper, than most employers would pay them. Thanks to advanced technology, having your own business is far less difficult to do today than it ever has been. Start-up costs can be made minimal nowadays, as well. Startup costs of less than $10 U.S. are quite possible. Who can't afford that? I'm not saying that starting a business is for everybody. However, many people do it all the time and it's not as out of reach as people make it. People from all education levels have had successful businesses.

Think of something you love to do. You'll be surprised that there are some people that would pay you kindly for it. If you think I don't know what I'm talking about, think of all the occupations out there. Singing, dancing, writing, athletics, cooking, drawing, driving, flying, even just talking are ways, among other occupations, to make an honest living. All of which can be entrepreneurial.

In conclusion, searching for a job can be much more stressful than starting your business. Employers are looking for this skill and that skill. Most employers want you to have a Bachelor's degree or more. Did ever occur to them that university is not for everyone. Most people that didn't go or complete university are every bit as intelligent as those that happen to graduate from one. Oh, that brings me to another false idea that our society is conditioned to think. However, I'll save that for the next episode. Ciao everyone.
