The struggle between the decision of being your own boss and working under someone is becoming more difficult to make as economic situations become tougher. From evaluation around me, self proclaimed entrepreneurs are quitting entrepreneurship because of difficulty in maintaining a business and reduced sales due to reduced purchasing power from people, an effect of the economic situation. Office workers on the other hand who also have been on one salary grade for a long time now are becoming fed up with how their monthly salary is no longer sufficient to secure a comfortable lifestyle for a month also due to the higher cost of living. What do you think is the way forward?

I will choose to maintain entrepreneurship.
even though when opening a business in a difficult economic situation and the attractiveness of the community is low, you shouldn't close your business, but you have to think about how the business must continue and have high interest.
Being an entrepreneur doesn't always go smoothly according to our thoughts, there must be times when the business is quiet and we are required to think about how the business will be busy again. for example, the business theme is replaced with something that draws a unique societal appeal. so that our efforts always have developments every time the attractiveness of buyers decreases.
we become entrepreneurs indirectly already become the boss of our own company and if the company's income starts to decrease we as bosses have to think about continuing the business so that the profit income increases again, not even closing the business.

Some people thinks that it is only money that guarantee to be an entrepreneur. Money is just the secondary aspect, the most important thing is the idea and the ability to stand by the idea, no matter the outcome.

if someone wants to be an entrepreneur but is already thinking about money, I think it won't work.
but if someone wants to be an entrepreneur and thinks of a process to grow his company bigger and has a good idea to make his business bigger that would be even better.
Indeed, all of this requires money to push for the better, but at least don't think about money or profits first, but think about enjoying the process of developing your own business to make it bigger. if the business has become large and has high buyer interest, there is no need to think about money, of course the profits will always flow
