4 POWERFUL REASONS TO GET INTO BUSINESS
in this day and era it is no longer a luxury to be in business, it has become a necessity. Why?
1. Self-employment. If you can’t find a formal job, get self-employed. Rather than wallow in frustration year after year because the government has not picked you, do something of your own. The question people always ask me is, where do I get capital? Start saving up that money you’re given by your parents, spouse, boyfriend or relatives. There’s no specific money written capital, it’s that same money you use for your expensive hair, lotion and data. Yeah that’s capital.
2. Side hustle. Everyone should have a side hustle to create an additional stream of income. All rich people have multiple streams of income. This means that even if you’re in formal employment you should still be on the lookout for a side hustle you can start.
3. Legacy. We all know that no matter how great your job is, you can't pass it on to your children when you're gone. But a business is something that can move from one generation to another. Therefore it becomes one of the great wealth creation strategies for your family.
4. Entrepreneurs create jobs. Even if many entrepreneurs start as sole proprietors, at some point in their business they have to hire someone. If we had 10,000 people starting businesses per year and each business owner hired 10 employees, we would have a hundred thousand youths off the job hunting street. So starting a business doesn’t just solve your problem, it also solves your customers and employee’s problems.
I wish you all the success in the world.
