Hi everyone, This is Krishna and I am new to this form. I don't have experience in content writing so don't mind if the way of writing is wrong. I will be learning and improving myself. As for myself, it goes like this...
I am from a 3rd world country where getting a job is the path to "Heaven" and doing business is a path to "Hell". It's been engraved into people from birth through the educational system here. During graduation, I got job offers from 2 MNCs and landed successfully in one. But it doesn't take me long to realize I got stuck in a rats race and if things go the way they are I am going to live the same life as my parents who say constantly to save, don't enjoy but save, save your entire life so that at some point you may enjoy. I still remember as a child when I asked for a video game console, the first thing they said was we can't afford then came the teachings on how I might waste my time, and I should study well and get a good job so that I can buy the console and play. Not gonna work in jobs. I quit my job in the same year (2021) just after 2 months after graduation. From then on I am free, I read novels, tried different things, lost some in the stock market, and lost more to stock market gurus. It's been 1 and a half years, I am self-sufficient and earn my living expenses from the stock market but as I don't have a job my parents kicked me out of the house. Here lies the freedom, that gave me confidence that I can do something. I became even more serious about the things I planned to do. There is no one stopping me now. Every day I learn something new, and even if I lost the money I am happy that I made progress and wealthy of all the knowledge and experience.
I don't know if anyone shares a similar experience or not but I learned I most important thing that if every thing goes south, you can always get a job just by learning relavent skills within a month of the trend.
