"I don't think everyone's path is entrepreneurship!" this is a response I got a lot yesterday.
Why is this something that people feel they have to point out? I'd think its common sense...
But, do people actually know what they are meant to do?
Not everyone is meant to be an entrepreneur for the sole fact that, not everyone unemployed right now is meant to be unemployed. Yet it is what it is. There is someone struggling to get a job month after month yet they know that thats where they should be...
Yes we are not ALL meant to be entrepreneurs, but also there is abundant evidence that people don't know what they are MEANT to be to begin with hence a booming business of Coaches... A booming business of people giving advice.
Not everyone is cut out to be a mom, not everyone is cut out to be married. Not everyone is meant to be a leader. Yet so many do try and we see them fail. But it is in trying, that we see who is meant to do what
We need to be careful not to end up with a society scared of trying

Let me teach you some basic math: R350,000 a year. After taxes you only get about R287, 225. Minus 12% for pension, take home is R257 565.
If you are not staying at home, rent can be about R4500/month. #stayhome
If you don't have medical aid already, R1700 minimum less maybe for hospital cover only...
Your new cash flow is R257, 565−(R54, 000+R1, 700×12) = R183, 165.
Need a car? used car (preowned) with an average car payment of R3, 500 and your insurance about R1, 500 (if you have never been covered by car insurance this value can be quite high, first time driver. So many other reasons.).
