Salary earners end up spending their salary buying from the business owners making the business owners to get profit from the business while the salary earners end up with nothing.
Salary earners are slaves to their master thinking they are pretty doing well but deep down, it's a trap to limit you from your internal full potential to establish a business of your choice. The worst part is that, these salary earners only given little time for vacation.
It takes a highly disciplined salary earners to build something that generates more money.
I don't think it is bad to be a salary earner because either one way or the other, you will have to survive on another person's paycheck, the next question is, on who's paycheck do you want to lean on. I think this is where many people get themselves enslaved because they end up settling on paychecks which put them in debts instead of sustenance.
This is the reason why we also need to advise ourselves to practice and getting used to multiple streams of income because surviving on one source of income can be dangerous. In the event you choose to stay on a single stream of income, which is highly not encouraged, try to be on a good payroll which will not enslave you.
