People are absolutely the best bet. First thing they teach you in nearly every business course I've ever taken and it extends to my life experience as well. People manage money, if you want to get good at managing money... Get good at dealing with people. I also don't find working for money tedious. I've enjoyed and absolutely loved many jobs. Jobs I did along the way... Served fast food, cleaned condos, clipped fish fins, bartending, worked my way through school and moved into business management and Startups. Worked hard, built a family, built friends and enjoyed it, felt the fear of failure and the joy of success. I was happy to improve my skills, accomplish new tasks, and grind my way to better times and things. Earning improves self- esteem, creates self-reliance and is good for our health and our brain. Money is a tool, it gives you options. It is neither good nor bad. It is just a tool Upvoted for an interesting read.

I see them more like a gamble than a best bet By all means, if you can rally the right people around a specific cause it can have a tremendous upside, that's how business is done. But that's far the exception than the rule and why 90% of businesses fail Not saying that there aren't people who enjoy their jobs but for me, I don't intend on working until retirement age. I enjoyed my first marketing job for sure, but other jobs not so much. But they were all a means to an end really weather I liked them or not. A means to money or a means to acquire skills I still use today and building a network I can rely on. > Earning improves self- esteem, creates self-reliance and is good for our health and our brain. I couldn't agree more, if you're simply working for money as your only motive you're going to miss out on the benefits you mentioned here. Thanks for the support and glad you enjoyed my little ramble
