I was born to employee parents and had been one all my life (even now as an entrepreneur). I am bold to say that being an employee has paid well. And that you need to be one to support that business venture you plan to move into.

I find it very exciting to talk about being identified as an employee. If you are opportune to find one, do roll with it. It is not in any way synonymous with lack of vision or laziness.

In fact, you can take the world as one!
