The truth be say e get people wey work for people all their life and dem still dey successful in what they're doing. E still get another people wey become successful by working for people before saving money from their earnings and then go on to privately establish themselves. In all of these things, I think it boils down to wetin you as a person dey see as the better option for you.
If you don't have any income to start up whatever you think will help you level up and upgrade your status quo and then gets the opportunity to work for someone, then take the job, save from it and establish yourself as soon as possible. None of the globally recognized successful men in the world became rich by working for people so you self can still be successful if you start from someone.
Another important thing to do is to create value for yourself. What I mean is that you should try and learn how to solve problems wey dey affect the society with your God-given talents, that way you go dey earn big money by doing what you have passion for. I hope say person go learn from this my talk today
