    6 Reasons why you shouldn't get a job

    We have all been brain-washed. There is no law that says everyone has to work for a living,neither is it true that without a job you can't make headway in life. Indeed, some of the most successful people i know are all self employed, take Bill gates for one he is the most successful "jobless" person there is. Let me tell you why its better to work for yourself instead of someone else.

    1. You will never be richer than the person/company you work for - You will never be richer than your employer. maybe you could Rob them blind but then you would be a thief and i don't encourage thiefs.
    2. Its not always the right thing to do after school - "Go get a Job!" was what my mum told me when i finished University. Most unsuccessful people think this way," after school  get a job" but really successful people say, "after school create a job".
    3. Human Beings are not meant to be raised in cages - Now why would you want to lose your freedom? why would you want to sit down all day staring at some beige box in a tight cubicle, with some one to tell you when you can go to the Toilet, when to take your lunch break and when you can take your holidays? why do we ( myself included) sell ourselves to these guys? We are no better than hens in a battery cage.
    4. You can get fired at anytime - No kidding!, don't think that because you are the hardest working "hen" the farmer will overlook you when he's looking for his Christmas dinner. Anybody can lose their job at any time and trust me, you most certainly don't want to be in that position..
    5. But i need the experience! - What makes you think that working the nine to five is the only way to gain experience in your chosen field? The best experience you could ever get is the experience you learn on your own. Doing your own Job.
    6. Find what you do naturally - Every human being has some 1 thing that they can do better than any thing else. when you find out what that thing is and you do it. You will become the most successful unemployed person ever.
    In conclusion i hope that Google does not put employment Adds on this page. I will not be amused. It will defeat the whole argument.

    Brilliance. This is exactly what I've been suggesting for months now. But capitalism and those, OMG lemme get into a good college ideals have been poured into all our heads, and we think there aren't any other options, but there are.
    And then those of us who agree with this, some of us are too scared to do it. The worst that'll happen is you end up on the street. If you're smart that's not so big of a deal, anyway.
    No. Point is, props to you, sir author person.

    Very good read. The whole being stuck in a cubicle for 8 hours a day really got to me. And then you have those who freak out because you leave at 5:00 on the dot. Excuse me, but when was I getting paid overtime. Life is too short.

    This is right on and very inspiring. As a professional coach, I often guide my clients in a strategy of developing multiple streams of income so they can eventually leave the one JOB that is killing them.

    People have no idea of the damage employment is doing to their souls. We needs to freely express who we are in full splendor without the limitations imposed on us by others. Full expression of your wild self is simply not accepted in most places of employment.

    re #6: Lots of people in paid employment have been well conditioned NOT to start asking any qs that would rock their JOB boat (or anyone elses) until uninvited career change comes a-knocking... outsourcing, layoffs, illness etc.
