I did both simultaneously, but ultimately it's better to work for yourself. It's a lifestyle choice. It also depends on the profession. Some constantly challenge you, so being an employee would be beneficial. But there are certain jobs that don't offer much growth. Those it would be better to start your own business, because as a business owner, you'll always have challenges.
Also, being an employee, your salary is basically capped for the year (unless there are commissions or incentives). As a business owner, your salary is only as high as you can make it. People with good sales skills would probably do well starting their own business. |

I would prefer working for someone, at least you know that you are having a payslip at the end of each week or month. Plus you have less stress and worry |

It depends on so many factors! Do you have the expertise, confidence and money to start up your own business? It is easier to build a career in a system that already exists and allows you to be promoted if you put effort in. You get pension, bonuses, insurance....
Basically, some people prefer to be their own boss to fit their work around kids or hate working mornings etc. Or can not get employment in their chosen field.
I personally was always up for employment until I moved to UK and I became self employed because my circumstances demanded so. I also looked into starting my own business from this point but then I came across a job that was perfect for me, so it is back to employment. It is very personal decision. |

You could start of by doing both.
Start a business that is simple and will not affect your current job or circumstances.
Costs virtually nothing to start with next to no overheads.
Become good at it and you can have the choice to work for someone else, or not, if you so choose.

Good luck. |

If I could make as much money working for someone else as I do running my own business, I'd work for someone else. It would be nice to receive a paycheck every Friday for the same amount.
It would be nice to be able to take a sick day - or even a vacation! It would also be nice to only work a set schedule - and not to worry about the financials of my business as I fall asleep at night. I can't imagine not having to worry if my employees are going to show up, get the job done and not break anything!
But, it pays the bills and I've been in business for 11 years, so it's more of a lifestyle than a job for me now!

Starting your own business is very easy.
Keeping it alive is the hardest point. You DO need either experience or a very good idea or both.
It could prove helpful to have experience in a bigger similar company, but in the same time if your idea is unique simply do it your own way....
I am up for my own company, but i have loads to learn which i will apply to improve my own unique idea :) |
