10 reasons you should never get a job

[Vladimir Poontang]

It's probably more productive to find a way to make an income in a way that is fulfilling rather than passive. Earning $100 p.h. doing something you like doesn't sound like a bad deal to me.

You know what's also fulfilling? Delivering massive value to a market and getting value back in exchange (aka profits). Bonus: all the work you put in up front allows you to decouple your time from your income.

Sure doing work you love is fulfilling but over time it loses its appeal when you are constantly chasing the next paycheck without a separation from your time.

Sure. I was just giving an alternative appealing scenario to the one of passive income. If you can earn money passively, great, but if not, if you enjoy what you're doing then that's not a bad way to exchange your time for money. Giving value is of course a given, pun intended.

OP got banned... and that's a thing that I hate hate hate from brilliant men like him! Could really help us out...

It's really a mystery to me why you would say something like that. OP was a nerd who had no idea what he was talking about. I think everyone agrees that it's better to have 100k passive per year than being an employee earning 70k per year. But where is the value linking to these articles that provide nothing actionable but only pumping people's emotions. "Job bad, business good". Yeah sure, now the question is what kind of business are you going to start and how. Of course it's very possible to launch a successful business. No doubt about that. But these dorky articles about how shitty being an employee is are helping no one.

Agreed. Being a successful entrepreneur or business owner is great, but Americans have this amazing ability to see the 2% or so who are successful and totally miss the other 98%, while also missing the hard work most of the 2% had to put in.

I like the way you think. People don't get a 'passive' income from being lazy. They get it for providing something that the marketplace feels is valuable, and making sure people can find said valuable product.
