Menjadi juri lebih seni adalah pilihan yang saya tentukan dengan sadar dan senang hati karena merupakan passion.


SEC - S15W5: WHICH IS BETTER?

Life has many choices. Not all choices are black and white, as in the challenge [SEC - S15W5: WHICH ONE IS BETTER?]( https://steemit.com/hive-120861/@steempreneurship/sec-s15w5-which-one-is- better). Many variables that determine a choice cannot be answered in black and white. Sometimes a person's position, time, orientation, and principles determine choices that cannot be answered in black and white.

However, I am interested in this challenge and will give an honest answer, even though sometimes honesty cannot please everyone. I can make small talk to please everyone. But it's impossible to please everyone, including in this challenge.

Employee or Entrepreneur?

Since I was little, I have chosen to be an entrepreneur. Because of that choice, I never remained an employee for long, even though I worked in a company that was well established in Aceh. If we make four quadrants like Robert Kiyosaki's concept; Worker, Self-Employed, Entrepreneur, and Investor, so I am in all quadrants.

Just now, in which quadrant do I earn more and in which quadrant the work is most enjoyable. It's also not an easy choice.

Instead of looking for work by becoming an employee, I would rather open up employment opportunities with entrepreneurs which means I can help more people.

Saving or investing?

I have been saving since I was little because I was taught that saving is the basis of being rich. That's why, I have always set aside pocket money since elementary school and only opened it during Eid al-Fitr. And I was the child who had the most money compared to other friends.

But after understanding inflation, I started investing. For me, investment is not only material, but also time, friendship, networks, knowledge, and much more. If investment is limited to material things, I started investing in the stock market in 2006. A year later I invested in the cryptocurrency market, although with a limited and controlled amount due to the high risk.

The results on both investments have not met expectations. However, at least you have enjoyed the ease of earning money, especially in cryptocurrency investments. I'm not a billionaire yet, just close to being one. A failed billionaire candidate!

Now I also have savings in the form of rupiah, dollars and precious metals. But I continue to invest in the stock market and cryptocurrency. I am sure, one day it will provide big profits.

Steemit or Hive?

I like both because there are different types of posts with different rewards. If you look, I am more active and interact more on Steemit which indicates that the priority is here because there is more community support and my assets are also more here.

I'd like to invite @zainalbakri, @munaa, and @abuarkan to make their choices here.[]

SEC - S15W5: WHICH ONE IS BETTER?

Hidup ini memiliki banyak pilihan. Tidak semuanya pilihan itu hitam putih, seperti yang ada dalam tantangan SEC - S15W5: WHICH ONE IS BETTER?. Banyak variabel yang menentukan sebuah pilihan tidak bisa dijawab dengan hitam putih. Terkadang posisi seseorang, waktu, orientasi, dan prinsip menentukan pilihan yang tidak bisa dijawab secara hitam putih.

Namun, saya tertarik dengan tantangan ini dan akan memberikan jawaban sejujurnya, meski terkadang kejujuran tidak bisa menyenangkan semua pihak. Saya bisa berbasa-basi untuk menyenangkan semua orang. Tetapi tidak bisa berbohong untuk menyenangkan semua orang, termasuk dalam tantangan ini.

Karyawan atau Pengusaha?

Sejak kecil saya sudah memilih menjadi pengusaha. Karena pilihan itulah, saya tidak pernah lama-lama menjadi karyawan, meski bekerja di sebuah perusahaan yang sudah mapan untuk ukuran Aceh. Kalau dibuat empat kuadran seperti konsep Robert Kiyosaki; Pekerja, Pekerja Mandiri, Pengusaha, dan Investor, maka saya ada dalam semua kuadran.

Tinggal sekarang, di kuadran mana penghasilan saya lebih banyak dan di kuadran mana pekerjaan itu sangat menyenangkan. Itu juga pilihan yang tidak mudah.

Alih-alih mencari pekerjaan dengan menjadi karyawan, saya lebih senang membuka lapangan kerja dengan menjadi pengusaha yang berarti bisa membantu lebih banyak orang.

Menabung atau berinvestasi?

Saya menabung sejak kecil karena sudah diajarkan menabung itu pangkal kaya. Makanya, saya selalu menyisihkan uang jajan sejak SD dan baru membukanya ketika hari raya Idul Fitri. Dan saya menjadi anak yang memiliki paling banyak uang dibandingkan dengan teman-teman lain.

Tapi setelah paham inflasi, saya mulai berinvestasi. Bagi saya, investasi itu bukan semata materi, tetapi juga waktu, persahabatan, jaringan, ilmu, dan banyak lagi. Kalau investasi sebatas materi, dalam pasar saham saya mulai menekuni sejak 2006. Setahun kemudian berinvestasi di pasar cryptocurrency meski dengan jumlah terbatas dan terkendali karena tingginya risiko.

Hasil di kedua investasi tersebut belum sesuai harapan. Namun, setidaknya sudah pernah menikmati kemudahan mendapatkan uang, terutama dalam investasi cryptocurrency. Saya belum menjadi miliader, hanya hampir menjadi miliader. Seorang calon miliader yang gagal!

Sekarang saya juga memiliki tabungan dalam bentuk uang rupiah, dollar, dan logam mulia. Tapi investasi di pasar saham dan cryptocurrency terus saya lakukan. Saya yakin, suatu saat akan memberikan keuntungan besar.

Steemit atau Hive?

Saya suka keduanya karena ada beberapa jenis postingan yang berbeda dengan reward berbeda. Kalau dilihat, saya lebih aktif dan lebih banyak berinteraksi di Steemit yang menandakan prioritas ada di sini karena dukungan komunitas lebih banyak dan aset saya juga lebih banyak di sini.

Saya ingin mengundang @zainalbakri, @munaa, dan @abuarkan untuk membuat pilihan mereka di sini.[]

¡Saludos amigo!😊

Al igual que tu, estuve ahorrando desde temprana edad y, siempre creí que esa era la mejor alternativa pero, hoy día pienso que el ahorro debe ser momentáneo ya que, la inversión tiene mejores alternativas para hacer crecer nuestra finanzas e incluso, garantizarnos un futuro financiero más sólido.

Te deseo mucho éxito en la dinámica, un fuerte abrazo💚

Estoy de acuerdo contigo sobre el ahorro. Solo uso ahorros para necesidades urgentes y a corto plazo. Entonces, todavía necesitamos ahorros. Pero la mayoría de nuestros activos deberían estar en inversiones más rentables.

Saludos cordiales y amistosos desde Indonesia.

Assalamualaikum friends, I hope you are well. You shared your post that you would like to be a businessman. If I have to choose between application or businessman, then of course I myself would prefer to be a businessman. It's a great thing to have. If we compare it with Apply, we have our own business, we can see different things in it, we can do deals, we can select working hours and our earning will be flexible.

And as all your assets are lying on steemit, you are giving more time to Steemit and you are also getting good support here. So I am very happy to see that you are working so hard on Steemit and seeing you guys also motivates us to work on Steemit. So I am also working hard and praying for you too and hope you will support.

Waalaikumussalam. Thank you for your prayers and support. I have been on Steemit for a long time and have experienced profits when being part of several international communities. At that time, the quality of posts received very pleasant rewards, and the price of SBD was at a high level.

I hope that times like that can happen again as the price of Steem always remains stable, approaching ATH.

I thought I am the only one remembers how I would starve myself when I was young just to save money that will in turn not buy or do anything tangible for me due to inflation. So grateful for this topic because we all know better now.

Inflation does make saving a scary choice. The problem is that in our country, Indonesia, we are taught from childhood to be diligent in saving, instead of investing.

It isn't just in your country, we were taught same in my country Nigeria. It is crazy how it has so affected our mentality now because people are always scared to take the risk of investing their money.

Maybe it's too late to change our mindset. But better late than never. Let's invest now.

Sure. Thanks to steem entrepreneur for this topic. It has opened up an important truth about finance.
