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.

As an artist, Swift's wealth mainly comprises earnings from global concert tours ($600 million), music revenue ($600 million), and real estate ($125 million).

Given Swift's significant influence, Forbes has ranked the 34-year-old singer fifth on its list of the world's "Most Powerful Women," following European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde, US Vice President Kamala Harris, and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

Should you focus on working hard or developing a side business?

The Hill, a US publication, commented on the 7th that Swift not only surpassed Rihanna ($1.4 billion) to become the youngest self-made female billionaire but also noted that most of her 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, while another artist, Jay-Z, with a net worth of $2.5 billion, mainly derives his wealth from diversified investments outside the music industry.

"I'm so inspired that my favorite Taylor Swift is now a billionaire; it motivates me to work even harder," one fan expressed excitedly.

Some people are naturally suited for climbing the corporate ladder through their efforts, while others prefer to develop their side businesses to generate more income.

Of course, some manage to do both, like @谋定后动 from Tiger Community who, as an executive at a tech company, has achieved career success and now earns more through investments, transforming from investor into an options expert and financial writer.

  • I do have my side business where I compose short pieces of music for clients. I work on these compositions whenever I have free time, typically during weekends, to meet their specific needs and preferences. [Happy]

    據《福布斯》雜誌最新統計,美國流行巨星泰勒·斯威夫特身家16億美元,超越蕾哈娜成爲全球最富有的女歌手。

    作爲一名藝術家,斯威夫特的財富主要包括全球巡迴演唱會收入(6億美元)、音樂收入(6億美元)和房地產(1.25億美元)。

    鑑於斯威夫特的巨大影響力,福布斯對這位34歲的歌手進行了排名在全球“最有權勢女性”排行榜上名列第五。繼歐盟委員會主席烏爾蘇拉·馮德萊恩、歐洲央行行長拉加德、美國副行長卡瑪拉·哈里斯、意大利總理焦爾吉婭·梅洛尼之後。

    有些人天生適合通過努力攀登公司的階梯,而另一些人則更喜歡發展副業來產生更多收入。

    當然,有些人兩者都能做到,比如@謀定後動來自老虎社區的他,作爲一家科技公司的高管,職業生涯取得了成功,現在通過投資賺得更多,從投資者轉型爲期權專家和財經作家。

    I m better suited for working on job than developing a side business. That’s what the fortune teller once told me. He was right![love you][Chuckle]


    Anyway, I don’t want to be like my siblings who have their own business. They worked non stop meeting deadlines.

    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.

    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]

  • 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]

    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...

    Better suited for working on job for stable income. Stock trading for passive income.

    When it comes to working on a job vs. developing a side business, I see it as a relative concept. To me, both are jobs in their own right. Whether you're working a 9-5 or hustling on a side business, both paths require commitment and effort. And let's be real, you can do both, just like some successful people out there who balance their main job and side hustles. So, my take? Focus on what you're passionate about, and don't stress too much about fitting into one category or the other. At the end of the day, it’s all work, and it’s all about making it work for you. 💼✨

    I'm currently exploring opportunities for a side business, but it's been challenging. Right now, I rely solely on my main job for income, and while I’m trying to earn extra through stock investments, the results have been inconsistent. I realize I need to improve my approach. I'm considering identifying my skills and interests to find something that aligns with what I enjoy. Online marketplaces like Etsy or Fiverr could be good options, and I’ve thought about affiliate marketing if I can leverage my social media presence. Additionally, I might invest in some educational resources to enhance my stock trading skills. Networking with other entrepreneurs could also provide valuable insights and support. Overall, I’m committed to finding a more stable source of income beyond my main job.
