Okay I have a question. This question may be thoroughly confusing but I hope you understand it. Entrepreneurs will say constantly that you should be hungry for as much money as possible but also say that the number 1 thing you should thrive for is freedom (i.e. freedom of your geographical location, free to eat what you want, yada yada)
My question is let’s say there is a certain amount you will inevitably profit either running a POS business or working a high paying corporate job and you know that that fixed amount will make you more than any entrepreneurial endeavour you could have online, what percentage of the that should that percentage be what you’d make with your online entrepreneurial endeavours would be just too low where taking the route that will pay you more will be the better alternative?
On one hand, it would be nice to make money remotely, that way I ALWAYS have control over my geographical location but at the same time, I wouldn’t mind working in a box temporarily but working my ass off that way I can retire earlier and enjoy the spoils of my income.
I actually believe the majority of people don’t actually want money or freedom as their first priority, what they want is status. They want to feel like they are above someone else. If you think of how thousands of years ago, a king couldn’t have all of the cuisine in the world, he couldn’t have a smart phone or car, internet, or the convenience of the modern world. What people want is relative to what other people around them have.
