Skill is helpful, and business is also helpful. What you choose to go into is what you see will be more beneficial to you and where you can practice with passion. Some skills are actually better paying than owning a business, depending on the skill and how good you are with it. The same thing is also applicable with owning a business and how good you are with it. Tackling all the challenges like competition and customer relationships will determine how the business will be.
Work, skills or business can pay higher based on the level. If your skill is rare and the demand for people like you that can do good jobs people will offer you high for you to work with them. Even some work pays high because of how dangerous and risky the jobs is. A typical example of such work are seamen and rig workers. They are paid high because of the nature of the job. Above all is business. An established man with a flourishing business can yield money more than having a skill or work. Business is like printing money, you can be sleeping and the business i bring in money for you every single minute.
When someone has a skill that is rarely mastered by many people and also has good quality work done, of course everyone must still pay them no matter how much they give and this is of course in accordance with customer satisfaction and jobs that have high risks of course have high pay because not everyone wants to do the job so it is difficult to find workers who can do it.
To be able to have a business that can continue to make money without working, of course we have to build it with hard work and not everyone can survive in a business for various reasons, but when we have built a good business and have a wide network, of course it will last a long time and we can continue to enjoy the results of the hard work we have done.
