Think seriously before you suggest a teenager should get a job. Or anyone to get a job as far as that goes. It could be very poor advice, particularly if you do not volunteer information regarding setting up in business as well. And while greater numbers of teenagers are setting up in business today, it is still worthwhile considering why a business is more feasible than moving into the labor force.
Here are 10 good reasons.
1. You Are in a Safer Place (especially in 2009)
What job would you be secure in today? Its the least secure career path on the planet. I recommend starting a business now. There is business opportunity galore!
2. You can act on your own ideas.
As your own boss you can act on every idea, and chances are it will make you money! And today how critical are ideas, and the ability to change direction very quickly. Large business's have been caught out by long time executive employees unable to make that key strategic change.
3. Avoid eternal psychological conditioning
What is a job really and what do you become in a predisposed conditioned environment? Be your own conditioner and levitate your self to a new and exciting place.
4. Get paid for what you produce
A job worker gets paid per every hour worked, and does not get paid the next hour until he/she works it. A business person builds a business that at least provides income for the standard business hours, and smart business people build passive income generating consistently around the clock. In both cases the bulk of your time can be invested in increasing your income instead of merely maintaining your income.
5. Gain experience in the experience.
What experience does a job provide doing the same thing 40-50 hours per week. Usually its repetitive process, and your exciting experience was the first 2 weeks when you learned how to do the process you will repeat everyday after then.
Business is the opportunity for new experience everyday. But the experience of business success is something that is difficult to obtain as an employee.
6. Ensure your tax is going somewhere worthwhile.
Employee income is the most heavily taxed there is and usually paid up front.
Business and entrepreneur tax is paid afterwards and usually with numerous expenses deducted. There is a certain degree of influence over the tax flow. How would you like it to be?
7. Create your own income.
The level of income is in your hands. Does a job offer the same control? Why is begging every 12 months considered an acceptable activity?
8. Freedom is part of the package
When does an employee obtain the freedom to have choice of other than what they can do on the weekend. When is the next holiday? What can I put on my desk? Will the boss let me go early on Friday? I can only have lunch at 1 o'clock!
If your the boss what are the choices available to you?
9. Choose your own social circle.
The friends you choose are the ones you keep, and they need not be in your immediate vocational sphere. In fact chances are you will create friends from a number of different circumstances, locations, environs and cultures. This is limited within the realm of employee where to a large extent your work colleagues also become your social colleagues.
10. Be responsible for your own results.
There is no one to blame but your self and there is no one to reward but yourself. No job worker enjoys this privilege and will often relent to blaming others regardless. In this regard courage, honesty, integrity, and honor are all at stake, no matter what you achieve.
