Investing is indeed an easier way to develop money than a business, as we know that business challenges are getting more difficult because of the increasingly fierce level of competition, many large companies have financial support making small businesses slowly die, the presence of investment can of course be our main choice to get income.
I think you are reversed in this case, precisely with a business it is easier to circulate money and increase income, if you pay attention to investors, the average success for them is at a fairly old age, but a businessman who has good skills in his field of business will get faster profits and bigger monthly income than an investor.
The problem of competition depends on how you fight it, if you feel that your product has competitiveness with your competitors, then you need to consistently build a reputation and existence for your product that is more feasible and cheaper than your opponents, and today if you have financial and business management the good thing is, even though your business is small you can apply for capital assistance to several parties such as banks or investors from your friends or family.
