Self employed vs employed

Self-employed vs. employed
Although the idea of owning a business is an exciting and
admirable one, it is not always a realistic option, especially for a
new graduate like me. On the Contrary, I would like to work for
someone else after my graduation. The reasons for my view go as
follows.
The most obvious reason is that I can learn plenty of mature
business and administrative knowledge as an employee. If I were
given the opportunity to work at an outstanding company such as
Mckinsey & Company or IBM, I certainly would absorb its first
hand management skills accumulated for years. I would also benefit
greatly from its various valuable training programs. With the help
like that I can avoid many unnecessary trials and failures that may
be involved in my own business path.
Another positive aspect of working for someone else lies in the
development of my broader social contact network. As I just step
into adult society, I am still timid and lack of communication skills.
Working for others will offer me opportunities to get access to all
kinds of clients, customers, and employers. Undoubtedly, adequate
exposure to them will teach me how to communicate with one
another, how to deal with socializing problems, and how to
establish my own personal social network.
Moreover, working for an employer, to some extent, can build up
nice personalities that are essential for my future career. As we all
understand, management knowledge itself does not lead to success
without a combination of broad social network and nice
personality. Working with colleague helps me to cultivate nice
dispositions-cooperative, responsible, caring for others, outgoing,
etc.
All in all, working for an employer suits my situation perfectly.
Therefore, from what has been discussed above, I would rather choose

to be an employee and prepare myself in all fields, if possible, for my
future self-employed.
