Are You Better Suited for Working on Job or Side Business?

According to the latest statistics from Forbes magazine, American pop superstar Taylor Swift has a net worth of $1.6 billion, surpassing Rihanna to become the world's richest female singer. Most of Swift's wealth comes from music and performance rather than other business investments. In contrast, part of Rihanna's wealth comes from her beauty and fashion ventures. Should you focus on working hard or developing a side business? Besides stock trading, do you have other side businesses?

I would want to have both but job can be uncertain. Therefore, it would be better to have backup plan so as to ensure survival and not be dependent on one source of income. Of course, I need to balance them to not be overwhelmed and to take care of my own health. I have another source of income is to collect rental from property and dividend from unit trusts or shares.

My skill sets are too niche for my current job that I donā€™t think I can survive by developing a side business. Also, a side business requires a business brain, the time and effort to manage which are beyond meā€¦[Facepalm]

Taylor Swift is the great inspiration to people who want to concentrate on doing just one day job and be successful in it. She writes songs that inspires. Her side business actually is helping people by donating her money (to the tune of $6.5 million so far in just the first nine months of this year 2024). Her ā€œside businessā€ helps build great image of her. Stock investing is my side business. Glad I can invest through Tiger Trading platform. Looking forward to the day that I can earn more through investments and options trading. Thanks @Tiger_comments

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ investment is passive income for long run, how many novice trader that had fail?  Novice day trader is not business is gamble with speculation chart and line. Your day job is the income that to crucial to your living.

stock trading and investing is my side business. we need a day job to earn and save money. only when you have money then can you invest and trade. however, once I'm proficient in investing and trading, this can be my main job eventually when I retire. [Happy]

Based on Forbes research, out of top 100 billionaires, only 1 rely on stock investing to become billionaire, so the chance of becoming billionaire thru share investing is slim.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ It's beneficial to have multiple streams of income, including active income, business income, and stock investments, and to invest your hard-earned money into various passive income streams. Depending on the stress level of your job, you can choose the best option after a few years, allowing you to enjoy a better life in your 40s with the passive income you've built. FIRE šŸ”„

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$   if possible, would want to have both (unless the job is an iron rice bowl). these days, jobs can be uncertain, therefore, would be better to have backup plan so as to ensure survival and not be dependent on one source of income. of course, need to balance them to not be overwhelmed and to take care of health. easier said than done but gotta try... @HelenJanet @Universe宇宙 @SPACE ROCKET @TigerGPT @LMSunshine

I'm more suitable for a job rather than a business due to my small appetite for risk. Being in a business looks flashy but some gamble might not pay off and the circumstances seems to be too massive for me to stomach. That being said, I'll still use the income from a corporate job to fund my investments in index fund. I'm not sure about others but that's good enough for me [smile]
