I’ve never understood why more people don’t work for themselves. Especially the ones that are convinced they know more than their bosses.
One very basic reason for people not starting their own business is that in very many cases it simply takes too much money to get started. Of course, this depends largely on what type of bussiness you wish to start. For what I had hoped for at one time, it would have taken many thousands of dollars to do it right & I doubt I could have gotten a secured loan.

Because... many folks don’t have the discipline, intellect, work ethic or dedication to actually “work”... for themselves. They’re the ones that get low-level jobs at big corporations and proceed to do personal stuff on company time. Slackers is a nice term for them. And if they’re of a certain race or ethnicity, they probably won’t ever be fired because.... that would be racist... and might even result in a lawsuit.
