I'm 22 and just graduated college and my job is about to get started in the month end in a tech giant company.

I already have two businesses, an amazon Fba and the other one is a mobile app Business. I have also experienced several failures in the past 2-3 years and I learned a lot from them.

I think the main reason I haven't been able to grow my business is because of lack of sufficient funds and not serving the right customers/not solving the right problems.

Just need a little advice from you people as I am confused right now.

I want to achieve my entrepreneurial goals but I think I should get some experience first, as it will open me to a world of opportunities and help me identify problems.

Should I do job for around 2-3 years, save some money that I can invest in my business and then go full time on my business? Or is my thinking wrong here?

I would love your feedback and advice and it would help me take further decisions.

If you have a job lined up, why wouldn't you take it, even if it's only to get some money to help out with your other projects as well as experience? Does the job in a tech giant prevent you from running your businesses at the same time? Some employers might think of that as a conflict of interest, but then some countries wouldn't allow that to be a problem.
