Start a biz or work for others???

ahsun: =) Recently meet up with a friend from northland sec sch....his name was khairul....that funny and always full of jokes guy from my secondary school.... last time he was always the trigger for most of the laughters in class and also we were classmates from sec 1 to 4 lor... currently he's studying in NUS school of real estate studies but will be graduating soon..... bump into him and his gf at adam khoo's seminar recently about "Profit from the panic" seminar @ Amara Hotel and so got in touch with him again.... so he told me about recent complains and also some of his personal thoughts of a "Typical NUS/NTU Student" Mindset....which i think are quite true for the local students here....

They study to work for others....instead of daring to go out to venture....to explore....create business and startups....many of us are and will still look for jobs....look forward to getting into that famous big MNC company instead of creating income from their own business ideas....well it's not bad to get into big company to work in world class corporate ladder....climb up the corporate ladder....but there are some students who defy the norm and go against the wind....to strike out on their own....go the unconventional way....and by trial and error....hit success and enjoy the ride of a life time instead of following the normal way :

(Study->Get Degree->Find Job->Earn $$$+Save->Marriage+House Finance->Re-save for Retirement)....which normally they termed as the Rat Race competition...

Started as soon as we went into primary school....all the way until the period we graduate from out studies.... well there are cases whereby people gain success through their good academic results....through employment...but people out there....how did they gain success??? by creating their own business.....out of their niche or leveraging on other business ideas......hmmm....this is what i would like to think about....through some online research...i found some great sources for business-like-minded people....to source for ideas....schemes....routemap to follow or study so as to launch their own business or at least create new income sources.....to become one of the successful people in sg society...

Some of the useful websites for "entreprenuers-to-be" are :

- www.business.gov.sg , www.spring.gov.sg , www.ace.org.sg , www.singaporestandardseshop.sg
