In his best-seller The Cashflow Quadrant, Robert Kiyosaki separates people into four groups:
There are details he doesn't mention, and I can understand why: it is better to simplify things so people can quickly grasp the main idea. And his main idea is amazingly correct.
Here, I want to talk about when it may be better to work as an employee rather than a business owner.
The main principle I use is "Work Reusability."
The key question is: "How much of the work you did on Monday is being reused on Tuesday?"
Consider two positions: a manager of a corporate training intranet vs the owner of a small convenience store.
Who do you think is continually reusing his own work and building on it? Who is creating value exponentially?
