Well, in my country,  there is really no tangible plan by the government to create jobs for the youths. This inevitably means that youths have  to take it upon themselves to look for a way to make money and this means one has to, most of the time, work online or becomes an entrepreneur.
Personally, I prefer working online as this gives me enough time to do other relevant things necessary for my personal growth. I particularly participate in signature and bounty campaigns to help complement the income I make as a graphics and visual identity designer.
