Bitcoin Forum

Working as a civil servants have always been my thing, I work from Monday to Friday which to me is normal, I feel proud doing it until I started trading bitcoin.

Trading started making me see things differently, because I no longer wait for my monthly salary, now I earn money daily and week, due to the kind of large amount of money I make in trading I fell out of love for my civil service job, because the money is small  but it is still a decent salary.

Note: in trading I earn base on performance, but even though the market is too bad, I still earn a decent amount of money out of it in a month base on my level in trading.

My question is guys which do you prefer, a steady monthly salary which you know that no matter what, it must come once the month ends or a business/ trading/ any other thing which you can do that you earn base on performance and you have the capacity to earn ten fold of what a civil servants might earn if you are good at it, but there is also a possibility that you may have a bad day in the office which you may even incurred some loss.

Which do you prefer an why.

You must be a professional in trading and might also be trading with huge capital for you to be earning that big.



I will prefer both; both earning options are essential to my financial growth, so as long as one is not restricting me from the other, I will gladly use both options.
Under the civil servant's job, I should or might be working in a field of specialization, which will be an added advantage to my career, and when one is doing what he loves, he derives joy from his work place.

On the trading part, I will do the little I can to work and trade at the same time. I know if I give it much of my time, the more I will perfect my skills, but that doesn't mean I will always be on the positive side of my orders.

The reason why I will have to keep both earnings coming is this: If I am to leave my civil servant job and focus on trading, now that I have lifted all my bills to be paid from my monthly salary, I will be surviving now on my daily earnings from trading, which is the most risky part of it. The level of caution you might be using when trading when you were working and now that you have made trading your full-time pay job won't be the same again.

You will want to make sure that you make some profit no matter what every single day and week, which will increase your chances of losing your trade. No more risk management procedures; all you care about is winning a trade. The more you continue losing and you remember that you don't have food at home, then emotion takes control. When you can't control your emotions, I guess you know what's next when you are trading under pressure.

Firstly there are many of this Same thread on economy board and that’s where the thread is best suited to, so please move it there. Learn how to use the search engine here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5276341.0%5Dhttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5276341.0)

Almost everyone wants to be their own boss and that is achievable with owning a business or trading. But both the latter and former are not easy to start up because one needs a capital. Although there are grants or loan that one could use to start up but the problem is the major risky of the business collapsing or losing everything on trading.

The government work comes with security and doesn’t need fund for business start up but government work also requires one to go through acquiring knowledge which is somewhat difficult for some people. Also the government work has its limitations because it doesn’t gives one freedom to earn more profit as you’re confined to only your salary or wages. I actually prefer the both but the business doesn’t need to exhausting one or one could just find sales person for the business.

The problem with trading is that at one perfect moment, something can go wrong and you will lose everything you have earned. An unsuccessful deal, a sharp change in market trends, a negative news background, or some other force majeure circumstances that are not so rare in the crypto market. Don't forget that you are probably using some kind of exchange for trading, which means that your money is in their hands. I don't think you should be reminded of exchanges that have been hacked or crashed in the past.

So that's what I want to tell you. It's good that you've mastered a new way to make money, but to put it mildly, it's a little risky to rely on it completely. If I were you, then personally I would not be able to afford to give up a stable job / salary for the sake of trading and would prefer to combine. In principle, one does not interfere with the other. Moreover, the work of a civil servant has always been your passion, as you say.

Trading Bitcoin is a very good thing to do, especially if you have good trading knowledge, as many people have testified that it is profitable. If not, I prefer holding my Bitcoin.

A steady and reliable source of income is very good; you cannot rely on the money you make in crypto trading because of the market situation and the risk involved in trading; therefore, I prefer a stable monthly salary that I am certain of over trading in which I could lose everything I own with a simple mistake.

I am not opposed to trading, but instead invest your small savings in Bitcoin and you will enjoy the profits letter.

Hope you are not planning to do what am thing? Don't think of leaving your job just because you are making money from crypto trading, you trading won't stop you from doing government work, hope you know their is no constant money in trading, your profit can come at any moment and you will be losing sometimes again, but when you are in a government job, your payment is secured every month you will be paid.

Have seen people who left their job just because they were making money from trading during bull run and when bear market started they couldn't make any money again, they were even losing, at the end, they ended up regretting why they left their job.
I don't know for how long you have been trading, if not that you are a expirened trader, during the bear market, you might not be making much profit, your loss might even be more than your profit, so I don't know how you will be able to survive if you don't have another source of income during bear market.

I will definitely go for a business, I have to be self employed then I will back it up with crypto trading, am not really the type that really like government job, I don't like to be controlled, I prefer to be the boss, but I can't leave cryptocurrency, so even if am running any business, then I will still be trading and I will be investing in bitcoin.

As for me I don't love like government employment I want to be self employed, because let me say if am working for government and government is paying me thirty thousand naira, government is buying my time not to do anything else, and if thirty thousand naira is my monthly salary that government is paying right, now calculate how much is your daily payment, and calculate your daily feeding out of the one thousand naira, and if you are paying transport to work, now calculate your daily spent of the daily payment. If you are self employee like bitcoin investment or find and starts up a business is better than working for government.

Actually, you don’t have to chose since you are good at both. Remember that trading should only serve as a side hustle since it can never provide us profits in a consistent manner, unlike our stable job does. You might be trading profitable today, but you can’t have the assurance if it will stay that way in the future. So for best results, stay in your job and just do trading at your free time. That would be my advice so you can still make significant profits from both.

You don't need to go further, in 2017's bull run, there are a lot of individuals here, just like you, working from 9-5 have a regular job, and do trading as a sideline and they said that they are going to resigned from their job and focus more on trading or even participating here like in signature campaigns because it give them more money wise as compare to their regular jobs (I based that majority of them are living in a 3rd world countries).

But you know what? after that, 2018 comes along and it is one of the worst bear market, or at least majority of them was not prepared to see it. And because they don't have the experience and they are not prepared, for sure majority of the have suffered from the shock and perhaps couldn't recover. So the best advise I would say is that you don't have to give up your job that easy in order to do trading. If you can still manage time and do both, the better.

With the recent happening ( inflation and recession) I won't encourage anyone to based on a single stream of income or business, although it may be time consuming trying to cope with the two activities. So as a trader what I would advise is that look for best time to be trading because trading at all time might makes you incurred lost while trying to focused on the office task that is being assigned to you. So trading at night will be more better with some specific range of time maybe developing 3 to 5 hours after working will also add additional value to your income while you still focused at the office.

To have more multiple stream of income you may also open a business for yourself from the profits and also monthly salaries to boost your earnings rather than depending on both. Here are some disadvantages of having one or two stream of income; office job be it civil work might got terminated anytime and leaving at square one or level zero, relying only on trading might put you on a higher risk why? Because all family pressure needs and wants are now being channeled to your profits that you may trade out. Meaning if there were lost you will keep trading to make sure you have some profits to settle out family needs which in turns endangering your capital by making more lost since you are now trading with pressure and anxiety.

I'll choose to do both, being employed with stable job guarantees me that I'll receive something every 15 or every end of the month. That's not going to make me worry about where I should spend it. While trading is completely flexible and I can do it anytime that I want, that's why I can do both of it. But here's the thing, if the side hustle that you're working on which is trading is making more money than your stable job and it's quite stable, you really have to consider thinking of doing it full time. Since you've done it and you've considered doing it full time, there should be no regrets and just do better in your trades.

A performance based job may have its advantages but there is a lot of pressure that comes in working such a job. If you fail to meet your target for the week or month you will likely not get that big check. I prefer a job that has a base salary plus commissions, this gives employees the assurance that they will definitely get paid at the end of the month regardless of their performance.
 Do you like commission job or salary base job (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5419075.0)

Maybe you can say this today because you are still at profits with trading, but remember that trading will not be forever especially that you are in a crypto trading where restrictions are still high for most of the countries. So choosing it over a stable job might be a risky decision and might put yourself in financial struggles later on. However, if you are making advantages from them both, then why there is a need to chose. I would prefer to do them both since they are making great contributions in my life right now.

Without a doubt I prefer to earn money based on my performance than earning a base salary in which my pay does not change regardless if I did great or if I did poorly, while such a thing will mean having ups and downs and it will make managing my finances more difficult I am up for the challenge, as I am better than the average person on that aspect, so why refuse to use it if over the long term this will mean and improved future for myself?

It is for me a choice between assured but low income and high income but lacking assurance. Answer would depend on what type of individual you are. Some people won't afford embracing the risk and would rather choose to just settle for less as long as there's considtency. However there are individuals which do prefer shortcut to success. I'd suggest be both if you can. Trading is indeed profitable but keep in mind that not all trades would generate profit and if you can manage the risk then that would be fine but still, a consistent income is necessary for every individual to make a living. If emotions won't be controlled in trading, expect huge loss to be the outcome because there'll be times the market would be tempting you to engage and lose eventually so be careful.

I prefer a performance-based income. Of course, there is always the possibility of failure. But hey, that's just part of the game. You win some, you lose some, but at least you are taking control of your own life and not relying on some corporation to dictate your worth.

Plus, think of all the perks that come with being your own boss. No more pesky managers breathing down your neck, no more soul-sucking office politics, and best of all, you get to set your own hours. Want to work from the beach? Go for it. Want to take a nap in the middle of the day? Why not? As long as you are bringing in the big bucks, you can do whatever the heck you want.

Most people will want to go for stable monthly money, at least you will be having peace of mind, no matter how worst things goes, at the end of the month you are going to receive your salary. The economy of most countries are affecting businesses now, most businesses are failing in countries, so it’s kind of difficult to grow business now in most countries, small scale businesses are failing in most countries, but business is not a bad idea. Trading is also nice, people believe trading is the easiest way of making money from the comfort of your house, but to me trading is not suppose to be taken as the main source of income, trading should be a alternative source of income.

You will not get a perfect answer, because we are different in terms of housing and in our marital status, the decent income rate in our country, and whether or not the government salary covers expenses and personal obligations, as the individual commitment is less than having a family to support from an obligation to a large family of father, brothers, and so on.

If your main job covers your basic expenses, gives you some luxury, and you have free time to develop yourself, then it is very ideal, especially since it is difficult to lose your job in government work.

In your free time, you can trade, as it is not suitable as a full-time job, but only as a part-time job.

Exactly. Government employment doesn't appeal to me as it used to Before. Majorly because in my country I have seen that it is better to be entrepreneurial than to rely on the government. There's a lot of money to be made from going into business for yourself. True, it is stressful running your own business but rewarding.

If this is me, I would leave my job and focus on trading and use a portion of my profit to start a business so that whatever happens to my trades, there is still something that provides me money. It's because, with the way you share your story, you seem to be a successful trader.

But that's for me. And that's because I hate to work in an office where I have supervisors and managers and all kinds of bosses. I just want to travel and work whenever I want to. Things could be different to other people, though.

With you, you seem to be happy and proud of your regular job. Why do you have to quit? As a matter of fact, even with that job of yours, you still managed to make successful trades. You don't seem to be drained and stressed out. If you can have both, that's certainly better.

Lets not focus on money right now because we know thay you earn decent money from trading what you should think is that the stability I know there will be the time that youll be losing in trading no matter what. It is better to do both just in case the other one isnt going well. If you can do both at the same time then it is good as it is extra money on you.

Why don't you maintain both? Diversifying income is a must-do in today's life. There is no guarantee that you will always make money trading, and there is no guarantee that your job as a civil servants will be stable forever. So, if you can maintain both to prevent unexpected situations as well as increase income is a good thing to do.

For me, even though investing or trading brings a better income than other traditional jobs, I have never considered it as the primary source of income because, in the market, anything can happen. It still carries far more risks than traditional jobs.

With the development of technology, there are many career options that can be chosen based on their individual abilities. Among the many choices, there are at least two job options that are currently in demand, becoming a civil servant or becoming a trader. Of course, the two career choices Op mentioned have their respective advantages and disadvantages.

If you place trades in the first place, trading allows you to get unlimited income, besides that you will also be faced with a risk of loss which is not small. You can have income certainty with a monthly salary and other benefits if you become a civil servant, besides that you will get a pension that guarantees your old age.

If you are the type of person who doesn't mind following the rules and wants certainty of income and old age, you can choose to become a civil servant. But if you are the type of person who likes to innovate and want to have the freedom to live without rules from other parties, you can choose to become a trader.
I would choose both if there was still a chance to become a civil servant. As a civil servant you can trade, but a trader may not necessarily be a civil servant.

Trading can't be taken as a job without backup income, what if you start losing more than you use to them you start getting pressured to make profits because you'll need the profits to go on with basic things of life like feeding and clothing yourself. When you start trading under pressure, your performance would drop and you'll increase your losing percentage which isn't good and it can make you regret your decision of quiting your steady income.

Steady income would make you lazy and can't make you financially free because you'll still be working for someone which is the government and it'll limit your growth and potentials. Trading can change your story at any moment when you trade the right tokens that'll give you incredible profits but you should have backup income.

Having a steady and long-term job is what many people really look for, because having a steady job puts a person in a safe zone. Salaries always flow every month, there are old age benefits, transportation allowances, and health benefits. Because of that, for most people, becoming a civil servant or being able to work in an official company, has always been a promising goal for many people, and it is a very normal thing for many people.
And it's only natural that you start to feel the difference when you get into the world of crypto investment, especially bitcoin. Because investing in bitcoin will definitely provide a different situation, especially in terms of profits. What you usually receive is a monthly salary, but when investing in bitcoin, if you are proficient in buying and selling, you can receive a salary within a day or a week. So don't be surprised if you feel attracted to bitcoin, because you will definitely feel something different after investing
in bitcoin in terms of earnings and timeframe ("investing bitcoins in the short term").

I will definitely take everything I can, because in life we ​​have to be on guard, take the opportunities that exist, and have to balance in all aspects.

Permanent job I will make this job as income for my safe zone or center, and now I'm also starting a small business because I don't want to be an employee forever, I also want to be independent, and lastly I also invest in bitcoin, because I believe bitcoin will continue to have great potential and can double my money in the long term (if there are no obstacles and it goes well). So basically I think about each of those things in the short term, medium term, and long term.

We all know that no matter how hard we work as an employee, our salary will not increase. The responsibility for the job may increase but not for the salary.

Now, I'm just curious about what you said that even though the situation in the trading market is not good, you can still make money, My question is this, what do you basically do to make money in crypto trading? Can you share at least one tip on this matter? and how much profit do you get every day at the minimum? and lastly, how much amount do you trade in cryptocurrency so that you can also earn daily?

If you're always make money in trading regardless the market in bear or bull season, you would quit your job immediately without need to seek an answer in this forum lol.

What's the benefit of working in a company? there's no exercise to make you healthy, there's a politic that will make a conflict, everyday handling a boring task, you need to face a traffic congestion, there's a chance you will get fired etc.

I think most people will choose to become a trader if it's so easy as you said above, they choose to work under someone company because they're lazy and don't want to take a risk since there's a monthly salary guaranteed.

If I could work for both, I would do it anyway because I could earn more. And that is a rare opportunity that not everyone has, so you shouldn't waste it because right now, you have 2 sources of income that can help you meet your daily needs.

And if you can continue to learn a lot about trading and improve your skills and skills in analysis, I'm sure your income in trading will also increase. And if your job as a civil servant doesn't bother you, it's better if you stay as a civil servant.

Ask your heart which one you want because everything is a choice. And when you have chosen, don't regret your choice and stay focused on doing it.

I prefer doing both because for me steady monthly salary is the one I used in my family’s daily expenses, that steady salary is already budgeted for our food, electricity bill, water bill, internet, mobile phone charges etc. with that i have no worry about where i will get money for our daily expenses. Doing trading / investing would be my second source the money I a lot in investing is for long term goal.

If it is possible, then anyone should try to combine the two options in order to be comfortable in life. Although it is not going to be an easy task,  you will stress your life and strain your ability, but if you can deal with this, that is the best solution for financial stability.

The first option of steady monthly income helps someone for planning and however it may be at the end of the month, you are sure of your salary, then you can now plan from there and wait for the next month.
But someone whose income is not steady could of course make such amount of money for one day or week, even more than someone that is on steady salary.

But however, in some cases the person  who does have a monthty income could be out of work and cash for complete one week to months before they will see another opportunity.
So if there is a way someone could have a monthly fixed income, and still has gig works or business, that will be better for a steady income flow.

I prefer a fixed salary, because in my opinion there are many benefits that I get when I am not able to work optimally when I am old or when I am sick.
working as a trader or other is indeed possible to be able to get more money but it also has risks that cannot be predicted while if working as a worker who receives a fixed salary it is possible that the salary is small and mediocre but even so it is also possible to make extra money at times the rest even though the time is very limited.
it all depends on the human mindset, for sure we have the same goal to be able to earn a lot of money to meet our needs and desires.

If choosing in between the two, I will prefer business. Although monthly salary will steadily land inside your bank account at due time maybe monthly and you can plan based on that but the major disadvantage of that is inflation. When a salary is fixed, it value of purchase is being eaten up by inflation as the salary is stagnant while inflation fluctuate and that defeats the achievement that could have been made through a fixed income.

One of the ways to beat inflation is to keep generating income that fluctuates just as the inflation is. Business source of income is a function of inflation, like prices interact with profit  and buying and selling likewise. Like you have mentioned trading, although it is difficult and boosting of steady profit is not easy but for those having their ways, they are far better than civil servants who will rely on government at the end of the month and in some cases the salary is either delayed or not paid promptly thereby disorganizing the benefit of a salary job.

If you have the ability to do both then don't let go of your civil job because it provides you a stable income. We all know the risk of crypto trading so it's better to have a constant source of income in case worse things would happen. If you are earning a decent ount of profit in trading then you have to allocate a part of your profit into assets so if ever you want to quit from your permanent job in the future, you would still have an income to sustain your needs. You can save up to put up a business or put it in an investment that will provide you with a passive income.

I think it's better to take both or diversify income from main sources, let real world jobs be whatever it is but provide stable income it's better to maintain especially if it doesn't take too much time and effort. Let trading be a sideline for daily or weekly income additions, because to be honest, when we pay too much attention to the market and trade mentally, we are more easily exposed to pressure due to market fluctuations. there is an analysis that is 100% always correct.

It's good to trade when you're feeling calm and away from negative thoughts to produce more controlled trading.
I think if we could manage and stabilize both I would really like it and do both well.

If your profession where you work is as an ordinary employee, I think you won't be able to invest so much money every month if the source is only from your own monthly salary. Because as you said, you will use your monthly salary for several sectors of your own needs, such as food, electricity bills, water bills, internet, cell phone costs, etc. So you still need income from other directions if you want to invest in larger amounts for the long term in your life.

If we already work as civil servants or private companies indeed every month will definitely receive a predetermined salary, but I prefer to do a trade either online or real trading because the income we get can exceed the salary received by employees if the trade we do is adequate, there is even a friend of mine who left an agency because he already has a job in more trade  Relax in managing time and more freedom but still income can be sufficient.

If it were me, I would also try to allocate time to do both. Having multiple sources of income is the dream of many people, so it's a pity if OP ignores it.
Although it will take us more time and energy to maintain both jobs at the same time, a high income will ensure that our lives will be more comfortable and we will be able to prepare many things for the future and the family.

If you can still earn while work I think the best option right now is do both. Looking for a job is very hard nowadays so please ask yourself are you suitable with this?

and second trading is risky business maybe for now you made a decent profit but sometimes market is against you and losses is inevitable and you must know this, and if you are good at it than full time trading is best option for you. but before you get out from your current job it always better to have multiple source of income rather than sorry later like I did :(

If OP already save enough money that he can spend for his daily needs UpTo days or years he plans not to work in his regular job then he can leave job as long as he have savings, emergency fund or insurance. Trading is undetermined we can't guarantee earnings everyday, we don't know when the market will pump or dump so before we decide to quit job we must know our capabilities. If leaving job can make him more money provided OP is that good in trading then better focus in it to get more chance of profit.
Many are doing side jobs now while doing trading, since it's hard to do extra jobs when we are committed in a full time job tha sometimes requires us to overtime too.

I believe that either you're 1) a fraud profitable or 2) Yes you are profitable yet inconsistent in your result. Because if you do, you won't ask the said question in the first place.
Be clear about your own vision and what you want to achieve in your life. Success isn't all about money. It's about doing what you love every single day. Now weigh both of your options. Ask yourself what is more fulfilling. In fact you can do trading in the side as you serve as civil servant.

Well, if you are making good money out of trading and also you are able to make a profit in times when the market situation is not favorable, then it means that trading suits you and you can quit your job and do full time trading. However, this may not be true for most of traders who usually face more loss than wins.

If you ask my opinion, I would say that one should get constant income, either from a day job, business, or trading, however, trading is not for everyone as it needs some skills to be able to trade professionally.

It's a personal choice when it comes to deciding between a steady monthly salary and a business/trading where earnings are based on performance. Both have advantages and disadvantages, and some people may prefer one over the other.

A steady monthly salary provides stability, which can be very reassuring. You can plan your finances accordingly and have a consistent source of income, which is important for people with financial responsibilities like family or debts. Additionally, a monthly salary may come with benefits like health insurance, paid time off, and retirement plans.

On the other hand, a business or trading can present an opportunity to earn more money, and your earnings are often based on your performance. If you are successful, you can earn ten times what you might earn as a civil servant. But this opportunity also comes with risks as there may be bad days that could result in losses.

Ultimately, it depends on an individual's risk appetite, financial goals, and priorities. Some people may prefer the stability of a monthly salary, while others may find the potential earnings of a business or trading more appealing. It's essential to weigh the pros and cons carefully before making a decision.

Preferably continue with your civil service job alongside trading of course you have to balance the two to avoid backlash probably late going to work due to some trading opportunities, of course you will miss some trading opportunities or signals while at work that means the few trading opportunities or signals that occurs must be well utilized, if possible increase your leverage to earn more profits while this is subject to your trading strategy which I hope or believe earns you profits consistently, I also believe your civil service job is less stressful so that you can concentrate on trading profitably after closing for the day job.

I would prefer both trading and a steady source of income over a salary.
Salary is a stable money that comes as a result of working for the government, so it is reliable. If I can have both a reliable salary and trading experience, I would like to add both so that I can benefit from them both.

I'll choose both. Because relying on a single stream of income can be risky, especially in uncertain economic times, It's important to diversify one's sources of income and consider multiple streams of revenue, whether through a side business or other investment opportunities. Above all, a trader must know how to manage their time and prioritize tasks effectively, especially when balancing a full-time job and trading. It's important to have clear goals and to avoid overextending oneself or taking on excessive risk.

Hard to say because for me the most important thing is free time. I always had jobs that were part-time and allowed me to focus on the things that I liked doing, basically I was freelancing all my life, earning little, but I also had other sources of income like a rented out property. I thought about it long time ago and I had an option to work all day and never be home, so that I'd have to hire people to do everything like a gardener, a plumber, an electrician, a nanny, or get a part-time job, learn less than half of what I'd get otherwise and be able to spend time at home with my family and do all the stuff myself and that's what I chose.

I really prefer to cut grass myself, get some tan while doing it, then drink a cold beer, instead of sitting in the office while some guy does this for me and gets paid for it.
Value your time people!

From your story it sounds like you had a good trade because it was profitable, and you have a good job and have a lot of free time to do other things like you trade.
so i think both are good for you and if i was in your shoes i would do both because i would easily do both as i have a lot of free time especially saturday sunday. And the work of civil servants is not like factory labor and you can still trade while working, but you also have to prioritize your work first.
So in my opinion both are equally good for you and you don't have to choose one because it will make you regret it later.

I am the type of person who prefers performance-based work, where the compensation I receive is based on the size of my contribution and the impact of the work I complete. This, of course, drives me to continuously improve and learn new things. When we acquire new knowledge, our capacity increases, allowing us to improvise and tailor our output to match our abilities.

Achieving great work is a daunting task for every day trader, as it involves consistently earning profits on a daily basis. Perhaps we differ in our approach to trading, and I would be delighted if you could share your experiences to help me withdraw profits every day.

I think it all depends on your style of living. I see people after they get a level of living status, they are contended with even a monthly income to meet that status. But once they are introduced to a new level or standard of living by giving too much money you get attracted to it and then once again you want this level of money to come to you so you can meet this new standard of living. I think humans always get lured to richness and then adjust them to that.

There are many crypto traders that are also making decent amount of money from their trading base on their knowledge toward trading, but the problem is that it is always that they do make good profit, they even experience loses sometimes.I sure making profits from trading can't be always but if you are making huge profits from it without not loses, it can just be a lucky season for you.
I may say that is just a lucky season for you and base on your good knowledge about trading. Many traders have experience good things you are experiencing now but  market later change which does not favor them again. Let be wise not to focus only on crypto trading.

I love to be self employed because of time I may not have for myself compare to working under company or government.but due to risks involves in crypto trading and not assurance that what I am have making from my trading will continue, I will prefer to go for government work that I will be seeing my salary at every end of the month continously.but I may just use trading as alternative way of making income.

It's wonderful to hear that you've had trading success and that it has helped you view income differently. The choice between a consistent monthly wage and a performance-based bonus ultimately comes down to personal preferences and risk tolerance. Others may prefer the potential for higher earnings through performance-based income, even with the possibility of sporadic losses, while some may prefer the security and stability of a steady paycheck. It's crucial to analyze the benefits and drawbacks of each choice, taking into account elements including financial objectives, preferred lifestyles, and personal values. The decision is ultimately up to you based on what suits you the best.

This topic is interesting to discuss, someone who has a fixed salary like civil servants will always be calm. but sometimes he do not want to improve his performance because there is no demand to improve work performance. Always on stagnant level and do not have any strong desire to break his limit to achieve another goals.

Trading / business encourages someone to always pursue new targets and improve the work performance.  This will make us always grow. But we will always face more complicated problem that should be handled on trading / business. You can earn profit from short trade on crypto trading,  but it does not easy as we said because  the market conditions are very difficult to predict. 

Atleast for the sake of my family I prefer doing the civil servant job. If I'm single I could've opted for the cryptocurrency trading, because I can manage with what I've earned for the day. When we've got dependents it is really hard and certain scenario can't be managed easily. Somehow I'll try to spend good time on trading as it gives me additional earning access based on my understanding about the market. Every day we can't expect it to be successful day in trading. OP is good enough and lucky to have consistent profit through trading.

I would prefer to do both if I had the option to but in this case since I don't really like trading so this won't be an option.

I don't really like trading because I'm not good at it so I prefer to do investment. I still do that from the time I started here until now and never touched trading too much because I am aware of my strengths and abilities.
On the other hand, I'm also still working in rl so this still makes sense. I like that even though the salary can be said to be just enough to make ends meet but it is the best thing for me in supporting my life and small family so it will not be stopped just like that, on the other hand investing for the long term is also important so I did it in bitcoin until now so in this case I can get two benefits at once even though bitcoin has no real guarantee but on the other hand I am still sure of it, as for my rl work it is to support my daily needs at this time.

I have ever hated white colar  job from day one. Even though am educated and have my certificate. Business has been my thing since I was a child because I hate waiting for a whole thirty days to be paid which no matter how hard you work as a civil servant,
your pay is and will always be less than your efforts to performances.
But in trading, your pay is determined by your effort, commitment, consistence and performances.
So I will rather prefer trading than working as a civil servant.

At least trading gives a certain independence - and, with due diligence and luck, some confidence in the future. Of course, you can't exclude the risk that you can lose everything in an instant - that's crypto-trading, but there is risk everywhere, unfortunately.

From my perspective, it is un preferable and perilous to quit your main job just because you made a profit in trading. In fact, I encourage you to do both simultaneously and once you gain a solid experience in trading and make large earnings, at the moment you can leave your main job and focus on crypto field but be careful, the market is unstable and unpredictable and regrettably the crypto future is blurry, It would be better if you find another source of funds apart trading such as freelance, e-commerce, goods trading and real estate … etc. For me, I would rather build my own business than be engaged in government job and work from 08h to 17h everyday. No offense the ones who work as employees but that’s called slavery .

Obviously I would prefer the work/job that gives me time freedom, can earn more than my job salary and can have access to the earnings 24/7.  But it does not hurt if we have both option.  A diverse source of income is a good thing because one can support you when the other one is performing badly.

In the case given, I would be greedy and choose the two since they don't conflict with each other.  I would love to have a steady income, it secure me of fund for my needs and at the same time, I also like to have additional income that can be acquired during my free time.  

Trading is not all green, and if it happens that the market fails you, your other source of income can save you from all worries.  

It's been seen that due to this pandemic, majority of the jobs can't be retained if there's something like this again. I'll choose to have a stable financial cash flow and one of it should come from being employed. I may not have that much freedom from it but I can do the things I like after work.

Since most corporate and civil jobs are just from weekdays, I still got few hours after shifts there and then I've got the weekends doing the things that I want.

Until everything is settle and I can do those things I want anytime I want and I'm making much profits from it that's able to sustain my daily needs, I'll leave my job once I get there.

If I were to answer the OP's question then I'd say "that depends on how you manage your time". If you can do both at the same time then it's very well recommended option since you can earn from both. First of, trading as a side hustle or any side hustles you can think of while trading, and at the same time you are working to earn a stable source of income. Nowadays, it's no longer enough to have a stable source of income if you plan to have a leisurely life in the future while having extra money, and even if you do have a decent amount of income from your stable source of income, it is not enough nowadays to sustain you for a long time.

Even if we say you can support you and your family from that job, is that really enough? I don't think that is, since there will be times that you need to have an extra money. I had to learn this on a very hard way, coz our family may be considered as middle class but in terms of extra income to buy some things that we need, we cannot afford to do it immediately, the reason for that is we need to consider some areas in our finances before doing that and it would at least take a year to buy what we need so we really have to step up and come up with another source of income or side hustles to shorten that time frame.

Well said, permanent jobs aren't as bad as people say it is, we have to stop listening to this motivation speakers that don't have any real life experience. People think immediately you start trading that you'll begin to make profit. You will need both time and other sources of income for suitability and that can be gotten from your permanent job that you know the salary is constant.

Having double sources of income should be what you should prefer instead of choosing one. All rich individuals have multiple sources of income because they know one of them could stop been profitable at any moment and when that happens, they need to have other sources of income to rely on which is something poor people don't have.

I will be greedy, I will choose both jobs because having multiple sources of income is a good thing not a bad thing. It's not easy to get a job with a stable salary these days, so don't give up on it. As for trading, you can do it in your spare time, it's not forced like other jobs. As long as you can arrange the time, I believe you can still operate both well.

When choosing between jobs, the money I not the first thing I look at. Don't get me wrong, I still look at the money but compare other things first.

Immediately after my college degree, I really needed a job, so I applied to a lot of companies related to my field. I had no investments and I was surviving on my savings so I really needed a job and fast, but it didn't come. So I gave up job hunting and learned a digital skill. Within a year of learning the skill, I started earning from it, not very much money but it was okay at the time, not regularly too (you know how it is).
Then a job offer came. about 14-15 months after the interview. It was from one of the biggest banks in my country here.
A year ago I would have grabbed that opportunity with open hands, but now I had to think. A job like this, in a reputable company like this, added to my resume will open career doors for the career I had in mind at the time.
But I didn't accept it. I would be working Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm. It was defiantly going to be a hindrance to the skill I was building because I still had a lot to learn and I was at the foundation stage where it required maximum attention.
I thought about things like the stress of going to work every day and only having time for myself only weekends. I know how stressful a bank job can be. Then I thought about the money. In my country, I feel like the idea of working in a big firm is part of your salary. Funny but true. I mean the prestige that comes with such a big company. You have to be either very good or very connected to work in a company like that. The salary wasn't worth the actual job you do.

Years later, I still tell myself I made the right decision and I believe it, not just because I will make it again if I was taken back in time but also because even if I'm not where I want to be, I know someone who took a similar role to the one I was offered and she's been telling me to help her look for another job because she tired of the one she's doing and I, on the other hand, is not tired of what I'm doing after so many years.

What if the two comes at once or expect the two anytime, the world has change and revolved round our life and we have to adjust to the way to the way it comes at us, you cannot work as a civil servants and expect that to pay all the bills around you. If you depend on only civil servant salary, how do you plan to get a car or build house or you want to be taking loans through the days of your life under the government, it doesn't make sense that way.

Find a civil servant work if that is available to you but take a business or a side husle along side so that you can have money coming from different angles, I will even suggest you take the business more serious than your civil servant job because it is not always strict like the regular companies work.

Personally, if you can do both, you should. Multiple streams of income are great and you can have more money coming in and maybe you can trade a lot more with having more with that. Unless you are satisfied already with that then go with it and focus on your trading balance and grow a lot more of it.

As long as you believe in it, you can for sure achieve it. Don't let others tell you otherwise.

I'm doing both and for the trading part, I let my trading bot run 24/7.

Everyone who is still alive in this world has the same amount of time in his life, and what distinguishes it is the way it is managed because when someone already has two different jobs in his life, of course managing time becomes very important in order to be able to carry out both every day. But this also doesn't need to be said as greed because there are many business people in this world who have more than one business so that the level of income is always higher.

If both can be carried out then why not remain in both, becoming civil servants and also becoming traders.
I also experienced a dilemma when I had to stay as an office worker or focus on trading and at that time it was very easy to make profits in trading so I made the wrong decision thinking that trading is a job that will always earn money but it turns out that this is not always the case, so I had to face economic difficulties because I was no longer working and trading was experiencing a decline in yields.
So if you can stick to both then it will be better until you actually have enough assets for retirement later, so that inflation won't reduce the value of your assets, but instead these assets provide regular income.

I don't want to disappoint the OP, but to be honest, very few people can make a living from trading because it's so unpredictable, and we can't always make a profit from it. I have never seen anyone who always wins without losing in trading, and most of the professional traders I know also have outside business. OP is making a lot of profit from trading, but that doesn't mean in the coming months, in the future, it will always be. Therefore, in my opinion, he should not give up his job as a civil servant despite a low salary and a lot of pressure.

Having a civil service job is everyone's dream since no matter what happens, you are at least sure of having your salary paid at the end of each months and it's also pensionable, which is an added advantage. But for me, I will likely go for the two, that is, both my civil service job and my extra source of income (i.e trading) since to become very rich, one don't need to rely on just only one source of income.

I will prefer a government job, because getting a government job in my country, you have to aquire some potential degrees before the Job will be giving to you with free official car, free accommodation and huge amount of money as monthly payment, which it can help you to save enough money for future growth. Don't forget that, for you to start trading, you need money that will help you to purchase enough coins and hold for a period of time before you can sell which not everybody that can take such risk in the community. I think, before you will have a bad day in your office that will make the management to sack you, you have already save enough money that will help you to create a good business that will be bringing income to you daily or weekly.

Well, the benefits and monthly income security make someone think that choosing a day job is the best option. Unlike when trading which you can't assure how much you get monthly but the advantage is that we can possibly generate more profit than the salary we get working. But of course, if you can manage to have them both, well, I honestly say that you really make multiple sources of income. Besides, trading doesn't require 24 hours on the computer nor do we have to do it and we can do this after work or any time of the day.

If you think you can do both, why not just take both? You can get two sources of income that can add to your income and add capital to trade and make ends meet. But you need to pay attention to allocating money from your income to have savings for sudden needs. That would be better because not many of us can have two sources of income that can be used for our lives. And you should be grateful to have both.

Trading and job are not same. The company will give you a salary at the end of the month after doing certain hours of duty at the place where you will work but the training is not like that, there is no salary system in trading and the income will depend on the individual. That is, the person who will trade will depend on whether he is trading at the right time or not. If you can trade any coin at the right time, when the value of that coin increases, you will generate some profit from your capital and you can set aside that profit and spend it on your needs. 

But it is not always possible to profit by trading, many times by trading many people put their money and resources at risk and suffer a lot. The main reason is not having enough knowledge about trading and not being able to trade at the right time.

It cannot be denied that until now, being a civil servant is still a dream for most people for the reasons you have mentioned,
i agree with you and its better to have more than one source of income because it will make us much more financially secure,
especially with today's life many basic necessities have experienced price increases.

There is a saying, When a blind begins to see, he gets rid of his stick first, which helps him when there was no one, Point is without that civil service job, would you become a tension free trader because you have to get your expenses in line before starting tension free trading, if yes. Then you don't need it.

But i prefer you to not leave the job for trading because as a civil servant (stick) job helped you in the first place, and it will help you in the ups and downs of trading too. Because there is a rise there is a down too. So if you already have a pre-caution option which you can choose to live a tension-free life then why trouble to think about choosing one?

If you can't take the weight of both work then that's another discussion but in your post, "you mainly mentioned due to money which you can earn in week and in days while you were earning monthly". So that's not an option.

I think a fixed monthly salary will never make us rich, I have felt a monthly salary for almost 8 years and finally I left and tried businesses such as apartment marketing, house marketing and so on, and when I'm lucky, within a month I can earn the equivalent of 2 years while working in the office.

There's nothing like getting paid for something you love doing because its no longer work and you will never get tired of doing it because there is love and there's always a burning motivation to do that even if we have bad days doing, there's no such thing as perfect work or vocation, we will always encounter hard times because its part of our learning process on that job.

Between trading and office service, I will prefer trading if I become good at doing it and the office work becomes boring, or if I still find my office work fulfilling and challenging and I'm still learning how to trade, I will retain my office work and treat trading as my sideline or another income source.

The most important is we love what we are doing and it satisfies our financial needs.

i prefer to focus on things that provide better income,, it can be business or trading,, because according to the fashion that I have that I don't like being under other people or sitting in an office for 6 full days, I can't imagine living like that .. if I do business or trade, it does give a burden on my mind that is no less heavy, but at least I can work freely without the need to be regulated by people and focus on other things that can increase the value of myself,, and that's the life that i want.

If you are this good at trading like you said then keep trading, to me trading and making a good amount of money daily requires skills and also a lot of money, sometimes the market won't move a lot in the next 24hrs, meaning you may only make 10% from an uptrend or downtrend, so you need a large some of the money for that 10% gain to worth your time and energy, if you are using 1000$ for trading you can make 50$ to 100$ depending on your chart skills.

I don't recommend futures trading, you can make a lot of money from futures trading but it's too risky, you can also lose every money you have if the trading call goes against you in futures trading.

As for your job/salary, only you know if it's worth keeping, it's always good to have an extra source of income but if you feel like the salary is too less and you are making a lot from your trading then it's good for you. Keep it up.

As much I also wanted to be in business and trade crypto at the same time, I wouldn't leave my 9-5 work if my business is still like in its growth stage. The pride of not being controlled or being your own boss, just like you said, has its own downsides. Once your business starts to show failure, assuming you only own a single business, your chances of being broke just snowballs in an avalanche.  It's kinda scary getting broke these days considering that inflation is an ass.

It's not a matter of being controlled or being your own boss, it's about being financially stable. There are still 9-5 works out there that still offer flexibility even if you work under someone just like mine. Corporate jobs aren't that bad at all, but I guess it depends to a lot of people. Another thing worth mentioning is that these days, you almost need to have another source of income so I guess that's where crypto investment/trading comes into place, I guess?

Not all office works require you to work for 6 full days. Even after our RTO policy, the office days still remained 5 days with offered flexibility wherein everyone has the choice to at least work from home 2 times per week. This kinda depends on the field though. If you really love what you're doing, then sit shouldn't really matter that much.

Both are beneficial in its own way and we cannot say bad about anyone because everyone prefer those jobs which gives them high yield. I think that if a person wants to do dual jobs at a same time like a civilian employee can do business as well as he can also get involved in crypto trading or investment.

Although income of civil jobs are less but it is a confirmed value while that of other business may be large amount but we have fear about that money that whether we will be able to get that money at the end or not. So I think do a job and then put some money in Bitcoin so you will get your monthly income as well as money from bitcoin investment.

It all depends on how proficient and confident we are in that one field, if I am not sure of the abilities that I have maybe I will become a civil servant and get a salary every month while honing my skills in the field that I am interested in

It's true. The issue with trading job is that you are never confident on your skills, because the final result doesn't depend only on your skills, but mainly on the market's fluctuations, which are unpredictable. To make a living from trading is a hardcore way of life. It's dangerous and you never have the assurance you are going to achieve a net income at the end of the month.

For a single person who lives on this own, this lifestyle may have its charm. On the other hand, for a person who has a family on his back it's not a feasible alternative, in my opinion, since stability is needed, especially when there are children in the family.

I prefer to keep them both, no need to chose. It’s hard to trust in trading alone and expect for a consistent income knowing the crypto market is very unpredictable, likewise it’s inflexible and incompetent of yours if you just work all day and earn from a single source of income knowing you can also take advantage with your side hustle and make good profits through trading. So if you wish to get the best from your abilities and skills, then chose to work on both and prosper from them.

i agree with you, I already tried both of it . Having a work alongside with trading will give you more money in the future. Ir will only exhaust you in a bit but it will worth it once you manage it well. But if you want to focus then leave one thing and sacrifice it, you cant do both if you dont have the ability to do it.

Many people have gotten rich by turning their side hustle into their full time work, there is no shame in that. In fact it would seem that you are much more productive in your trading work, so you should do more of that and as long as you are paying taxes fairly - it's better for your community/society if you do the job that earns more, as long as it provides enough satisfaction to you. It seems like you've lost your love for civil service work, so take the money that you're earning and find some way to give back. Buy some land, plant a forest and donate it as a park. Go litter picking every day. Help the elderly. Join a food kitchen that feeds the homeless. There's all these other ways that you could help in your free time.

Trading can be done anytime and anywhere without any time limit, you can trade during breaks at work, on holidays and before bedtime. You need to know, crypto trading has quite high risks such as an unlimited decline in value, there are no fundamentals that can be analyzed and are not protected by regulatory bodies.
If you have a background as a professional trader, you can combine the two, apart from your busy life as a civil servant, you can use your spare time to trade. If I had the chance I would choose both.

I think there will be a conflict of time depending on what the OP's specific position in the government office.
If his job requires most of his time to be attentive to every detail while he's in his office, then I don't think he'll have enough time to analyse the market movement to execute a good buy and sell orders. That could be one of the main reason why he choose to leave his job to focus more on trading as he can earn more while doing it full time.

I would suggest that OP will need to have a business that could generate a steady and stable income that doesn't require most of his time. That serves as his back up financially when things in trading go south.

Both are good when it comes to choice there is a possibility of earning a monthly job in fact, in trading, one must have good knowledge of trading. Many times, the difficult condition of the market is not understood, so many traders suffer. And monthly salary government employees have one source of income and less risk. If you have good knowledge about crypto then you can earn more but before that, you need to learn well about the market. Even if you work, side income from trading will back up.

On the contrary, I think he is making quite a lot of money from trading, and he thinks that if he puts all his time into it, he can make more money. It's not really because he's too pressured or can't arrange for both of them.

We don't know how long he's been in trading, but honestly, I haven't seen anyone who has been able to succeed and feed a family from trading. I mean professional traders besides trading, they also do outside business, or another job. They also have multiple sources of income as trading is not always profitable.

In OP's case, if he wants to quit his job as a civil servant, he needs at least a side business or another job that takes up less time. Don't just rely on trading and think he can have a better life thanks to it.

I don't think there will be anyone in the world who doesn't like self-employment and prefers a day job instead of being their own boss where they are literally free to do whatever they want to without anyone having the right to say anything to them for not working the same hours or going anywhere or taking leave, you talk about any aspect, self-employment is a thousand folds better than working for a company or even the government.

The only thing that one should be concerned about is whether they can earn enough by themselves and whether the earning is consistent or not. Not being able to earn one day and earning more the other day is okay, but having breaks of weeks or months can become an issue later on.

Job will play an important role in conducting your life. You will get a certain amount of money every month with which you can manage your family expenses. But if you want to earn extra money and live a better life, trading offers you an alternative income. A person can manage trading while keeping a job so I never imagine trading as opposed to a job. I think people who want to trading get an opportunity to earn more money besides job.

It all depends on what stage of your life you are....

If you have been a civil servant for many years and you have built up a good pension, then I will keep that job and trade Crypto currencies in my spare time.

If you are a younger person, with a long future ahead of him or her.... then I will take the chance and start Crypto currencies on a full-time basis. If it turns out to be a mistake, you still have a lot of time to start a new career and to build a pension for the future.

People with fixed expenses, like car or bond payments should also never rely on commission based income or profit based income on trading.  ::)

believe that working for yourself is better than working for the government because, unlike trading or other self-employment, working for yourself gives you the opportunity to earn more money than you could ever think while still taking care of your financial status. However, in some nations, many government employees still rely on their daily wages and still start up their own businesses because their pay is insufficient to cover their expenses.
Although I am aware that a civil servant's salary is based on the type of work they perform, I would advise all other civil servants to not place too much reliance on their monetary pay because working for the government is not a job that you can do until the end of your life, whereas being self-employed never ends or you get to retired.

Basically  there is no harm in having the both if you can cope and manage then efficiently since it is always advisable  to have multiple streams of income.
On the long run, trading is a very risky business and if not well done, has the possibility  of ruining one's  life just as it can make one have a better life so except one is financially  stable, I wouldn't  advice then to go all in trading  without having a backup for funding.
I've seen people living a very comfortable  and stable life from a regular job without having any basic knowledge nor crypto, so please its no harm having  the both

When someone works in the civil service, they get a monthly salary and lots of benefits including their children's schooling and health, apart from that when they are old they will get a pension so most civil workers are comfortable and not interested in doing anything, of course everyone's thinking will be different and in my opinion the monthly salary is boring thing and nowadays would rather do any work even if it looks uncertain.

Well, I agree that a lot depends on what stage of life we are in. I can relate to your comment, when we are younger we are exploring the world and we often get in some trouble because we didn't think it through (who will bother with that at a young age), the world is ours and we feel like we can conquer the world. But when wife and kids come, and all other stuff that comes with growing up we get another perspective... and when the responsibility is on us we can't allow ourselves to risk a lot and put everything we build for years in danger.

I am a civil servant for years, and I combine my job with my interest in crypto. It's not so hard to do it, most of the time...

There is no point leaving one for one, your job is time based right? They create a time for your trading, you can still work and trade at the same time, trading is what I do too but not every time, and it doesn't take me more than one hour or two, I don't do trading around the clock like some gurus. A win is enough for the day, so I use some USD and create down an order waiting for a fill then I sell when there is profit so it's not like those futures.

Even if its futures trading you can create orders and use close trade features to your advantage, you can also set when to take profits too, I use bybit and binance for trading.

No point leaving your job but it's your call, if you think you don't need the extra money and the amount you making from trading is good for all your responsibility then you can stop working if you want.

Why not combine both at the same time, I don't think there will be any problem running them at the same time. Working as a civil servant has set working hours and you can take advantage of your free time to trade, so you don't have to wait for Friday, Saturday and Sunday or you can use your free time between breaks to monitor trading via mobile.

The point is that being able to use both of their time simultaneously is much better, because as far as I know working in the Civil Service there is also not too much work and instead we work much more relaxed because each work has been arranged. In my opinion, working as a Civil Servant is a job that is too relaxed and can be done with other jobs together.

The choice depends on where you live, in my area it is currently difficult for people to work for civil servants, because the recruitment process is getting tighter and doesn't provide many opportunities for people to work. Most people in my area prefer to work as civil servants and even though it is difficult to get into the job. Meanwhile, talking about working in a company is also very difficult, because there are very few companies available at my place.

In the end, people will decide to work as freelance workers and not be tied to anything, because the most important thing is that they can make money, even if it's small. If asked to choose which one depends on where you live and how the availability of jobs in your area. Developing a business may be a good choice and choosing to invest in bitcoin is also the right choice, depending on how you take advantage of all the things that can be profitable and most importantly you can run it properly and know what risks will occur.

It is not always good days in trading there will be a time that your strategy now are not working that supposed to be and that is the time you need your job for extra money. I do agree that you shouldn't leave you job as you can still trade even in your work so just take that opportunity and take that advantage that you can trade on your phone which means you have multiple source of income that can make you successful and buy those things that you want

That is true, there are professional traders who may make money that way, or there are people who use others money to trade in the wall street world for example, all of that is understandable and common as a business. If you are like that then you may make a profit but if you are not like that then you are going to lose a lot.

I personally suggest that everyone who ends up with a profit on trading should be careful because they may end up losing it a bit later, it's not a consistent thing and you need to learn how to trade very well before you start. It's like walking on a thin rope a 8000 feet, if you fall, you die, and here if you fall you lose all your money, would you go up and walk that thin rope without any previous study and education o nit? You need to learn first.

Let's be direct. Trading? It's dangerous. Not everyone becomes wealthy. They'll fail. Why this fixation? Quick cash attracts them. Trading is not a goldmine. Success requires blood, sweat, and tears. Trading may give the specialized insight. Thinking rapidly, changing strategies, and assessing outcomes become second nature. Anywhere-useful life skills. Don't fear hard effort or mistakes if you want to trade. It's hard, but if you're determined and lucky, it's worth it.

The most dumb thing that people do is to resign or let go their active income and then go full time in trading, rich people do not even do that because for them it is a dumb decision. We should have a lot of different source of income if we want to become rich, so for me quitting in your civil job and go full time in trading is not a good idea. It is better if you will still continue becing civil servant and also an investor just make sure you have organized plan that will help you to manage your schedule very well.

I saw a lot of people who regret their decision when they quit to their job and just focus in trading, remember that you only few people who can become profitable in trading so it is really hard if trading is just your source of income. You will be pressure to make money which is really bad because it can affect your trading psychology which can lead you to make bad decisions in trading. It takes a lot of time and it can be took to years just to become profitable and make consistent profit. The really best decision is to pick both and not to let go trading and your active income job. That's what will rich people will do if they are in your position.

In my country a civil worker is the dream of many people, when there is a vacancy to become a civil servant then the applicants can reach 100x, for example there are 1000 vacancies, then those who register and write tests can reach 100,000, this is because civil servants have many advantages besides salary and facilities , but I'm not interested in becoming a civil servant and prefer to work in the private sector.

I prefer to try or trade rather than being an employee even though the business sometimes goes up and down because trying has a risk but instead of being an employee our salary takes a long time to increase it takes years that's the reason I chose a business because I learned how to make money by trading because we try not to have pressure a large one like a natural office employee. very high pressure but the salary we receive is not commensurate with what we do I really don't like that
this is just my personal opinion what do you think?

It's normal to earn while working except if the company intentionally didn't pay you but we can always report them. Maybe on some undeveloped or developing countries, jobs there are hard to find. If that is the case then we should value it.

We must not forget that this is where we start so we must not replace it easily only because we think trading can offer nice money because that might not last. The OP is planning on quitting his job so I think he will also do the same on his other earning activities if ever he has it, so that it gives him more focus and time for trading. He will never have an interest in trading if he is already earning decent from multiple sources.

Personally, and this coming a little bit from a place of abundance, I'd choose working on my own business instead of making someone else rich. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with going full-time office employment but the stress and the issues that comes with working for a corporate company, from the commute alone is already something that I'd have a hard time handling. So, for the sake of my mental health and my growth as a person who wants to own an established business/enterprise someday, I'd choose personal earning schemes like businesses and trading assets instead of toiling from 9-5, exhausting myself with the dangerous and stressful commute system of the country I live in, only to get paid peanuts in the process, albeit consistently.

Both are actually giving significant profits but if I want to take advantage and maximize the profit making, then it’s better to keep them and work on progress for them both. You can’t rely to just trading alone, because there are times that the market won’t let you become profitable even how pro you are, but as a government worker, regardless if you are a newbie or pro, you will certainly received fixed amount of income at the end of the month. But working on it alone won’t never give you unlimited profits, unlike when you prefer to work on both.

Since you are skilled in both, you need not make a decision. Keep in mind that trading should only be used as a secondary source of income because, unlike our secure employment, it can never guarantee us earnings on a regular basis. Even if your trade is profitable right now, there is no guarantee that it will continue to be so in the future. Stay at your job and just engage in trading during your free time for the best outcomes. That would be my recommendation so that you can still profit significantly from both.

Op I will advice you not to quit your civil servant work because of trading, remember bitcoin did not come or was not created to come take over fiat currency but it was created to assist the fiat currency online. That is the same thing with you civil servant work and trading. Trading should not take you government work either the trading should be a supporting pillar to your work.
Both of them are preferable, because all the two support one another for the progressive of the other. It was the civ servant salary was used for the trading and the same thing the trading now is making the civil servant salary to be saved. So all are good.

If you are a low risk taker and just want to play it safe, then choosing your job over trading is not really bad. After all, being a civil servant actually makes a good amount of income. However, for some people who have more skills to show like you, then it’s never bad to make use of them at your own advantage. Keep your job and continue trading as your side hustle, that way you will reach your goals in life faster than what you expected. But never forget to take caution when trading as its definitely a high risk job.

for me you can actually do both it's a matter of time management but since if you work as a civil servant from mondays to fridays you don't have enough time to do trading well, you can do it at night if you want it depends on you if you're not tired , but i prefer if you're stable at your job too it's better if you stay on it because it's an opportunity to you since not all can actually easily apply for a job now and the most important thing is you have a degree.

I agree that if it permits us to do both which is have a stable income from a job while also trading or others that has the capacity to give you higher profit. In this way, you can be secured since you have a constant source of income which is your job that is enough to provide your needs and wants. The trading and other side hustles can be a form to help us be financially secured so that we can diversify our savings and investments that is important in the future. So, it is really best to maximize everything as long as we are really capable of doing so since it is a great opportunity for you to make yourself better financially.

Yeah Im from developing countries get job here is kinda hard and low skilled job doesn't pay enough.


You don't get the point, like I was said before trade is risky and sometimes loss is inevitable the other business is just for the backup plan when trades goes wrong Trading is High Risk High Return so it always good if we have low risk low return too

If we can become civil servants for the government and earn enough income then we don't need to do anything, we must continue to improve our discipline and skills so that we can get promoted, I also plan to become a civil servant and this year there are 3 tests that I will do.

Unless you have huge wealth in your account enough to take the risk in trading, then it won’t be hard to leave your current job and shift into trading as your new career. As long as you have great skills and strategies that work for you, then trading will be a good source for stable income. However, for some who are still learning to trade and improving their skills and strategies, it’s better to focus on your job while doing some trading at your spare hours. Trading is really rewarding and productive but it’s certainly more risky and stressful especially for those who are not used to the crypto market volatility.

Civil servants is something that almost everyone likes, most parents suggest their children to work as civil servants, this is because civil servants will be respected and of course get a large salary, in my country to enter into civil servants requires strict selection, and sometimes it took a very large fee so when he was accepted the first thing that was thought was to immediately get the money used for the entrance fee.

I prefer doing both. If I can go back in time and be on my early years of working again, I'd do it all. Trading must've been good to you but there will be times when it becomes boring. Do it in 3-5 years then you feel the intense feeling of being alone.
I chose to prefer doing both because I still want to socialize. Being on a company has those perks, not just the salary, being with other people, talking to them and having fun if there is a time to spare.
Now, I work from home. It's damn lonely. Yeah, you do have your family near you and see them every day but I still prefer having another side of me that fills that loneliness of companionship.

Those who are more eager to become civil servants in your country, I don't think it's wrong if they don't have other permanent jobs in life. Moreover, after becoming a civil servant, it is certain that there will be a pension salary that they can enjoy in their old age, even though those who become civil servants will not be as rich as the big businessmen in their country.

But there are also those who join civil servants because they are forced to due to having no other choice after they graduate from college, but this is clearly not bad because it is also part of the business in their life even though there are many people who do not pass the civil servant test which later too work as private employees in a field they understand.

It sounds like you have a clear idea of your chosen path and understand the risks and benefits of being entrepreneurial versus being an employee. I think Running your own business certainly has challenges, but it also offers a lot more flexibility and control over your income potential. Even so, being an employee has its own advantages such as a steady income, job security, and benefits.

I agree with you, giving up my main job to focus all my time on trading is a bad decision. There are times when trading gives us high income, it does not mean that we will always be able to earn high income from trading. Honestly, I have seen many people who can make a lot of money from trading, but those people also have other jobs besides trading. They used to tell me even though trading makes a lot of money, but not always, there will be times when there will be huge losses. Therefore, for them, they have never considered trading as the main occupation that brings their income and economic stability. They always have other sources of income if their days trading goes wrong.

With the current difficult life, everyone wants to diversify their income sources, having 2 or 3 sources of income is always the desire of many people, OP is doing the opposite. OP, please consider carefully before making your final decision.

I prefer the possibility of getting a bigger one, because if you only rely on a monthly salary then you will not grow, because you will get used to it and don't have to think about anything else.
while the other has the ability to change you every day, you will be forced to think and make changes from time to time so that you can grow and have an ever-increasing mindset.

If someone only relies on his monthly salary, I don't think he will develop quickly in his life and it will be difficult for him to become rich because he has no other income. As for the monthly salary, he will definitely use it for daily needs, although he can leave a little of his salary for savings. But he will have to have a very long time to see his savings become large.

An increased mindset can only be possessed by those who are not satisfied with their monthly salary, because such people will always think of getting other sources of income in order to change their lives. And in general, of course, the level of ability to think and also the ability to move is also very much needed because thinking without doing is also nonsense.

When someone has become an "expert", there is no need to ask this question because the answer is clear that people will only have a profession that they like, without pressure from superiors, more likely to earn more. Too many expect it, but in reality it is difficult to achieve it, while more argue that steady income is not so bad because most people will consider the consequences up front. And make no mistake, several types of jobs as an employee are also required to be "expert" before they are accepted.

It's true. As we have noticed, the life of a civil servant or private employee has a fixed monthly salary, for example, a salary of $ 300 per month must be able to meet the needs for a month, meaning that no more than $ 10 dollars must be spent even though there are other benefits, but with the price of goods that continues to rise, indirectly it must be looking for other passive income.

Yes, it's true as you say. It's important to have a growth mindset and constantly look for new opportunities for personal and professional growth. However, it is also important to remember that financial stability is very important and one must strike a balance between income growth and financial security.

It's been a few years since I was a day trader on a crypto exchange. And I also admit that this activity is quite fun because I am not bound by time and place. Thank God even I can provide for my family from every profit I earn from my daily trading. but I withdraw profits only within a week. because I am a scalping type of trader. I earn little by little every day. I collect and I withdraw every week to spend on my household needs.

But it is also necessary to know the fact that maybe you should know that being a day trader is not easy. even in the first year I started day trading. I can't have consistent profits. because at that time I had not mastered the psychology of trading and the market. Analysis in trading (technical, fundamental and sentimental) can indeed help us get profit and make us understand market conditions and when to enter and exit. and makes it easier for us to determine where to buy and sell points. it's just that all of that can be in vain if we are not good at managing our emotions. so it is important to learn emotional management / trading psychology. Sharpen mentally and stick to the results of the analysis that we have made carefully.

so you can say I am comfortable with my choice as a trader. but I am also happy with the salary I receive from Signature in this Forum. that I can collect for my long term investment. and I invest for my children's later education and also my and my wife's old age.

everyone must have their own choice where they are more comfortable in the choice of work and various types of income. but I'm comfortable with my current state.

This depends on personal choices to me I would say civil service job is also important as it will act as a support especially for those who are newbies in the trade
One thing you should not is that the payment is constant every month you are ensured of your salary
In the aspects of trade it is a life changing job the if attention is given fully it gives rise to our yield just like we will expect there are a lot of people who only depends on the trade and forget about civil service job is not that they don't want to get involved but it is a matter of choice just like I said earlier

In my opinion, civil service job is good job. In starting ,I will continue this job because it will pay our monthly bills. When I will be expert in trading of Bitcoin, I will quit this job and I will focus on trading because trading will give me high income than civil service job . I can make Bitcoin trading work a full time job. Civil service job will waste my time ,So I am interested in Bitcoin trading. The future of Bitcoin trading is very bright. I will focus on Bitcoin mining and I will research very well. In this way,I will become a professional Bitcoin trader ,I will make multiple times money than civil service job.

There are indeed people with an increased mindset being more common among those who are dissatisfied with their monthly salary. Dissatisfaction can be a motivator for people to seek for more income and strive for positive change in their lives. It reflects a proactive approach to improving their financial situation and overall well-being. A mindset shift with concrete actions is what propels people toward their goals. It acknowledges that thoughts alone may not lead to tangible results.

Thought and action should be a synergy to create a powerful combination for personal and professional development. That acknowledgement encourages a comprehensive approach to improvement, because recognizing the ability to think creatively and strategically must be complemented by the willingness and capability to take decisive steps toward positive change. It resonates with the idea that transformation often requires both mental and practical engagement.

If it helps you both, why don't you do it at the same time as what you are doing now? You can't do that for sure if you don't have an understanding of how to conduct trading activity every day of your life.

So, good for you if you are getting profit from trading here in cryptocurrency or bitcoin; just continue what you started, but for others who have a stable job and don't know anything about crypto trading, don't neglect the job that gives you earnings monthly. Just learn trading first.

I also work in a full-time job and I think that this is not as bad as people who categorically deny official work are trying to present it. And those who believe that everyone should only be self-sufficient. But free earnings such as signature campaigns and trading do not have stability. We just saw how the campaign mixer fell apart here on the forum. Trading can also fail and the price will go in an unpredictable direction.
And any responsible person without 50 thousand dollars in his pocket will not quit his main job.

Both are the same to me... it depends on how much I can get, and that can influence my preference. Working as an employee with a regular job and earning $50,000 salary seems more appealing than running a business and trading with a daily income of $500. I lean towards the amount of money, not where it comes from. However, if the results of both jobs are the same, I would prefer trading because I get better time flexibility than working. Well, who doesn't like freedom?

Something we consider good is relative, so it's reasonable if you connect it with money... a realistic perspective stands out the most. We all like money, no need to be hypocritical. And I'm sure everyone likes more money. It will provide more freedom for us to spend on things we like.

It depends on the payment that comes from the monthly job or business. Trading has higher volatility and has such there might come a time where the trading capital get blown down to zero and in times like that it is the job/business that will sustain and raise capital for funding the trading account again.

I won't even advise anyone to rely solely on trading because of the high risk but combine it with other sources of income

Definitely the business. why will someone even want to choose the steady monthly salary? Don’t be deceived by the steadiness of the salary because even if it’s stable, it is equally stagnant; you may never earn more than what you’re being paid but guess what? The owner of the company makes more and more money even if yours is fixed yet stable. Instead of this, start working on your own idea/business. If the people who built these big companies today never took a step forwards, they would have been nothing more than employees who are being paid a steady monthly salary.

It's important to keep in mind that we are all different. For me having a steady monthly income (salary) gives you financial stability by ensuring a reliable stream of money for everyday expenses, saving for the future and dealing with unexpected costs. This brings peace of mind, making it easier to plan for the long term and lessening the impact of financial uncertainties. Unless your business is built to always profit.

Oh yes we are all different but salaries are not actually what you think, or let me say that owning a company gives you all you need. There is no way that a company will not make money and still pay the workers properly. What I’m saying in essence is that if you own a company, you only pay the workers a fraction of what is being made by the company. So, for the worker to make money, the company must have made loads of money (probably why you don’t see the CEO so often ;D).

And btw, you don’t get rich/wealthy by saving money.

It is really a very happy news that you are involved in trading along with job and you are earning regular money by trading. There is a lot of need for money in life, before trading you might have met your needs with money from your job but now you don't have to wait for salary anymore but you are able to meet your needs with the amount of money you earn from trading. In this case, the benefit for you is that you can make any other plans while keeping your entire salary intact. It goes without saying that you have a good financial support through trading. If you can do trading consistently and if there is profit consistently, then one time you will see that you can earn several times more monthly income than salary by trading.

Obviously, if you don't know anything about trading but you have a stable job in a campaign and you have an interest in learning crypto trading, the right thing to do is learn it first and don't let go or neglect the job you currently have.

But if you are knowledgeable in trading and at the same time have a job, it will be an advantage for you to increase the source of income you have, as OP says in this matter.

At first Op used his finances made through his stable income to trade in bitcoin. Which yielded him some profits, and his next possible idea was to leave the civil services work. Would he have made it to the trading level, if he didn't earn stable income? Many people have been deceived by such discussions and dropped their good-paying jobs to start a business. Later they'll end up being unemployed and won't earn anything. Moving from living large to not living at all. Hence, everyone should stick to a plan they'll be able to complete from start to finish. And not make decisions because they're being paid lesser in their place of work, compared to earnings from their side hustle. Most times after the funds increase the person's expenses skyrocket too, he'd purchase things he never would have if paid the normal salary, leaving him with no savings. It's all good to have a high income, but the plan must be calculated. The disadvantage of losing one job for another is losing both.

Successful businessmen still undergo losses and can also go bankrupt and rely on loans to survive. Money management is the key to a good living. Provided the employee earns a decent salary like OP said, moving out of the work, isn't worth the stress. Unless the working environment is not conducive, the person is also advised to stay clear or resign, if they've got a side hustle. Factors that affect employees to leave a company may include; bad management, inadequate relationship with staff, low salary, and unstable salary rate. Employees in such a company with one or two of the above disputes can move away and start up a life outside the company or build a business. But, tagging crypto trading as a reason to quit a job, is a red-flagged decision, the person may end up regretting in the nearest months ahead. Practicing crypto trading won't affect Op's working hours in the office. I'd prefer he does the same job and keeps on trading, instead of leaving his job to focus on trading as a profession. Considering the risks, he'll claim to be vast, but it's not worth resigning.

I've never dreamt of being a civil servant like you, this might be a very good job in your country, but not in my country, you might struggle financially till you die unless you are a corrupt worker. For this, and for the fact that I've always dreamed about success, I prefer to either work on my own or find a private sector job that would value me and pay me what I'm truly worth. However, trading and investment are not new to me, so it doesn't freak me as it does people, particularly the people of this crypto era. This might be because I have been engaging in them since my university days. After finishing school, I continued and I have been trading/investing and working at the same time ever since, which I believe is the best approach in this situation.

What I am driving at is that trading/investing should always be viewed as a way to earn passive income not otherwise. You should know that they are risky as well, and even if you know them very well, I will still not advise you to make them your only source of income. And since being a government worker is your passion, why not go for it? Do it while you trade/invest also. After all, you are not missing anything, but you will only be richer than your colleagues, if not your top boss at work.

Real results can only be achieved with real action through our own lives, meaning that everyone must act well enough after thinking wisely enough before implementing their respective thought patterns. Because basically everyone wants a change in life for the better so that the real income they hope for can be clearly seen in their own lives.

Encouragement for a good approach usually occurs through the environment and social influences of each of them because everyone definitely has the enthusiasm to change and become better when they see other people who have also succeeded in making changes in their lives so that those who have not yet reached that level will definitely quite enthusiastic and will encourage themselves to be able to do the same thing in order to get the life changes they want by frequently getting involved in any work that can benefit them.

As we grow older, we want stability and that's why no doubt that many are going to choose that stable monthly income from whatever you do. But this time, it's no longer that stability that people want but freedom. The era is changing and owning a business may be hectic at the beginning if you are still on establishing part but once it's already established, it will run on its own and having people will make you earn money without the need for you to allot a lot of time then that goes the tenfolds of profits and at the same time freedom to do anything you want anytime.

i prefer to do business with income every month and use part of my income to invest in bitcoin, compared to trading and risk my money being lost in the market. because trading has risks and requires my time to analyze the market all the time just for profit, and i personally am not suitable for that. especially in trading, not every time you can get a profit from your trading and that would be risky for me who needs money for my various needs every month.

I prefer to be in crypto related job like in signature campaigns rather than working as a public servant because of the fact that there were possible issues we might encounter just like mine. I am currently a new volunteer law enforcer that is prone to some political issues which affected one of my colleague as he lose his temper everytime critics hit our job. As a volunteer I  only get $50 a month honorarium plus my signature campaign weekly payment. To be honest my overall salary is not enough for me to invest upgrades with my tools and equipment to be used as a volunteer law enforcer.

Yes I agree with you, basically everyone has different thoughts. Having a job that generates monthly income, I think usually people like this tend to be more about their daily lives, where the income they get per month is only enough for their daily needs, also if their income is limited they cannot set aside some of their money for savings. For me, limited income is not a reason not to save, because I think there will be things that might happen suddenly and this certainly requires money to handle it. So even though the monthly income that you get is limited, there is nothing wrong with setting aside a little to save because it can be used someday when there are urgent or unexpected things like what I said.
 
But I myself prefer business or business anyway, because it's not just about losses or profits but by running a business or business it also makes me learn many things, where I have more responsibility with what I do personally, whether it's income and expenses, business ideas, marketing or others.

Crypto trading and civil servants are two things that are very far apart in comparison, for me these two things have no choice, both are life motivation and positive goals to improve our economy well or financially.

For me there is no choice, as long as we can do it and work to produce a good economy there is nothing wrong with both, civil servants have a job and a salary, Crypto trading is done to generate additional economy, so both are done without having to sacrifice each other, in essence I like both of them and for the reason that they are both different activities and generate financial economy.

As long as the two can go hand in hand and strengthen each other's economy, there is nothing to get rid of.
Working as a civil servant is the dream of many people in my country, and even they will get many benefits that will guarantee their lives in the future.
To be able to enter as a civil servant is not easy, there will be many selections made.

Then becoming a trader was an option for a side job.
It's not just crypto trading, crypto enthusiasts or those who work to profit from crypto, it can be a lucrative side job.
Both can complement each other and support each other towards the financial foundation.

Having a business where we can use the income to invest will indeed be very good, because we can use the income from the business we run for the investments we make and this will certainly be very good for us in the future. Doing trading is not an easy thing to understand so It would be better to invest if we don't understand trading well because if we don't understand trading well then this will make us lose the money we have in trading.

Well, if the salary or profit you are gaining from Signature Campaign is enough for you to sustain your daily needs and wants and also your investment, if there is, then you are good, or that's good, but the thing is, Signature Campaign is a based project wherein you can only earn if you get to a project, but what if there isn't? See? Even though you are gaining from crypto-related jobs, you still need some stable monthly income. Why? Well, in crypto currency, there's always a risk—the risk of losing money, the risk of making a mistake that will cost you money—so what if you only have crypto-related jobs but suddenly they're gone? Then you don't have other means of earning.

That's why I choose to do both, having a stable monthly income and doing crypto-related jobs like signature campaigns, trading, and holding of assets, so that I have stable income and extra income. Yes, you can earn a lot in trading, more than your monthly salary, but it's possible if you are sure that you are really good at trading or investing in bitcoin. Don't abandon a stable way of earning money because we never know what will happen next.

In this age of financial awareness, many struggle with difficult realities. You're right about saving, but "enough" is a luxury for some. Saving can seem like a mirage when the budget barely meets living expenditures. What about debt? It often plays a silent role in financial survival. However, your argument concerning unforeseen bills is correct - life's unpredictability doesn't care about money balance. This leads to your business preference. It's a learning curve and offers autonomy, but isn't it riskier? How many start businesses only to discover reality tougher than expected? Does risk-reward balance seem like a tightrope?

Let's not ignore the sharp differences with regular work. Running a business requires ingenuity, market awareness, and personal resilience. Don't big losses frequently outweigh possible profits? Responsibility is a double-edged sword. It promotes growth, but at what cost? Entrepreneurship's underlying challenges include stress, unpredictability, and balancing personal and professional life. Your entrepreneurial zeal is admirable, but the road less travelled isn't always the scenic route; it may have more obstacles.

I think it depends on a certain individual.

Some people prefer sure money, that's why they wanted to have a job, keep it as long as possible if they are contented in their monthly salary or don't wanna leave their job because they are afraid that if they do, they will not find another job. Other people prefer their own source of income which they control their own time and pacing, and their selves are their own bosses, which I prefer.

For me, you're going to be more productive when you manage your own time and decisions to earn money as much as possible, but stress cannot be avoided since it's part of our lives.

I believe the answer to your question is obvious: you cannot compare a monthly salary with the money you make from trading; trading is based on performance, as you stated, but in the workplace, no one will value your work no matter how much you strive to kill yourself. Instead, it is preferable that you concentrate on trading and make money every day or every week. However, trading is based on your level of expertise rather than just your performance, mate. If you lack this level of expertise, I doubt you will be able to make any more money than you have been making from your monthly payment. Those who trade are very skilled and won't allow anything to happen to their trading fund. You also made the right decision by taking on additional work outside of your job because relying solely on monthly payments is dangerous because it leaves you without anything at all and increases the likelihood that you will run out of money to cover your expenses.

As we grow older we learn a lot and having freedom is one of them. It is not easy though since there will be a lot of trials to happen. But first things first, we need to have enough savings to start a business and another fund allocated in case our business won't work especially in the first few months of operation.

As for OP's case, she seems to have learned a lot of trading skills that enabled her to gain profits even if the market is not doing well. Pretty sure it's a tough way of earning money at least for most people like me. I also tried it before because I thought I could live a life through trading. 

the monthly income they get is only enough for their needs that means they don't have to borrow for their basic needs right? do all people who have limited income they borrow money? i don't think so, because those who have a good mindset might think that with the income they get it can fulfill their needs so why borrow if there is no urgency, but indeed people who have limited income they will meet with unlucky days so maybe they will also borrow money from others. is it wrong for someone to want to start their business? should someone stop there because they know there are risks later if they start a business? if they don't move forward they won't know, because even though there are risks in starting a business in my opinion it doesn't mean we have to stop, because even someone who is successful must have faced risks and experienced failure.

big losses will occur if we don't run the business well, think about this, does someone start a business with the aim of getting losses? of course not, right? of course they start a business to make a profit, so they have to manage it well so that there are no big losses. even if they experience losses I think they should be able to handle it well, that doesn't mean when we get losses we stop, life is not that short my friend.

Having both would really be always that good on which it would really be just that depending on how well you would really be that able to have that good time management on dealing with things.Yes, its easy but you would really be ending up on having no choices because you do deal up with both things. If you do find out that trading is much more worth or you are simply that confident with your trading skills then it wont really be that bad on quitting  your job and would really be going full time with trading but if you arent that still confident with your skills then make trading as your side income. It is true that once our side income becomes that more bigger with our main job then we would really be having that kind of boredom or losing interest gradually.

I could say since i was actually on the same situation on which Bitcoin trading or investments turns out to be more feasible or something that more worth rather than on spending my
time into my job almost whole day just to earn something which is way more less when we do speak about trading profits. Just like you said that you would really be
having those moments on trying out to choose on which one you should really be leaving on on which its common sense thing that we would be sticking into those much bigger options.

I think that there is no such thing as a "steady income". People are just deluding themselves that they have a stable source of money because they have a job. But the truth is that they can be fired for almost any random reason at any time.

Personally, I would rather concentrate on different passive income sources. The more you have the better. Ironically, having such an income source is infinitely more secure than hoping that you get to keep your wage job in the near/far future.

Stability could also be achieved when a business blossoms and flourish, we only experience instability when we are doing something that is not yielding the required or adequate result that could be impressive on us, in some regards we are to receive the blame because the lesser we are putting into what we do the poorer it's becomes for us to see it performing well in the economy market, so we should double up if we expect more.

It all depends on the amount of monthly income, the needs of the individual, and the time it takes to generate that income. If a person spends a very long time earning an income that barely meets their basic needs, is it necessary to hang on to it?

It is really hard to achieve stability not only in terms of performance and efforts you are exerting to improve your business, but there is also the time that could ruin everything that you have planned for. I think every investor in the business industry is aware of that risk which is any kind of time like for example the pandemic. This would be achieved if building a business includes a long-term plan and also being prepared for unexpected events in the process. Performance you would just need to find and hire people who are trusted and well-mannered cause people who have skills and talent but lack discipline could affect your business.

Obviously there could be a lot of people who prefer that they end up with a trading mentality or getting rich mentality because we are in the bitcoin world and there are a lot of people who are willing to take wild risks in this market.

But there are some like us, who prefer the monthly salary, my idea of financial life so far has been work as hard as possible, make as much money as possible, spend most of it, and keep if possible 10% of my salary in bitcoin every month and then keep on saving. After a few decades when I am old, if I am alive to be old of course, then I will have a lot of money, millions if bitcoin keeps rising like this, and I would be able to just retire and leave my kids a very good life. Simple as that.

Owning a business is what is going to safe us from the stress of getting a job and going to work every morning to meet up with work. There are regions where owning a private business even though is for a small scale business is what people are after rather than going for a white scholar jobs. I would prefer people to try as possible to create their own business and build it to a level where they can be comfortable living the kind of life they want to the fullest. It is high time people need to start doing something and get their own business established. We don't need to start big but starting small and growing the business would be a better way to stay independent on outside jobs.

I want to have a stable monthly income and I'll find for an addition opportunity that I can work part time. This is what everyone is doing these days.
I won't just let it gone the stable monthly income that I am getting no matter what type of effort I do but that doesn't mean that I'll be slack on performing there, no.
I still believe that there are companies that are appreciating their employees and gives the decent reward that we deserve.

Actually in this case we are kind of talking about the criteria and perspective of some people because obviously it will be very different regardless of whether they will take it on a monthly basis or maybe prefer per day or per week, it all depends on our own preferences.
I personally feel that for now I don't really matter whether we are paid per day, per week or per month as long as what we do is appropriate and fitting with the payment we receive. As long as something like that is fulfilled then I think it's not too much of a problem to be anywhere in payment, it's just that if there is an option to choose then we definitely prefer in the middle because a month is too long and daily income I don't think is too good for economic management so the middle ground is a week that is very good.

I prefer both, you don't have to choose between the two because you can do it at the same time. And that's what I do now and most people there. You can't rely all on one
if you want your life to be comfortable. So for me it's better to do both at the same time than to choose one because they both earn money.

Not everyone does... there's evidence as many people do not have a side job and solely focus on what they do because their time is fully occupied. We can see that people with side jobs always need more money... they often hide behind the word 'hardworking' while realizing that their main job's salary is far from reasonable.

Wealthy individuals will focus solely on their businesses and invest all their energy in improving their skills and capabilities to become more professional. The main income is what determines whether someone needs a side job or not. Even without a side job, it doesn't mean they're lazy. You cannot judge someone who doesn't work hard physically as lazy because working smart sometimes requires exhausting thinking.

Why would you prefer to settle for a more regular pay grade within a defined period when you can make so much within or short time of not?
I get it that there are those who don’t like to take risk, don’t like to put themselves in the line but, what’s the fun in that? What life when you don’t get to take risks every now and then?
Life itself is a big risk and as such, you ought to seek out opportunities to keep you out of the rat race.

You’re not growing when your life revolve around a scheme, a scheme designed by the government to ensure your growth is stampeded and determinant on what you’re being offered.

I can never settle for any salary in the world. I’ll rather be in the business of taking that salary to invest in some other business that could earn me some good numbers as well. That’s where the money is, what you can do for yourself.

Yes, but the difference is that you don't need to establish something that you need to work hard on it. A business isn't built one day and that's why if you are in a company that receives monthly income, that's all you want to have and just finish the job with the schedule of your going to the office everyday.

There are pros and cons in making one but if you are confident that you'll be able to make it with your business then it's actually for you. You are the boss and no one will scold you when you're late or when you've low sales. Those that are open minded that are still employed, they've got back up when they establish one because all they have to do is test and trial until it becomes successful.

Based on what you've said, it's all about your value and it gets to the point that the time you allocate is also valuable. This is more of a contractor type but still gets to the point of being paid based on your performance.

There are businesses that all you need to do is to market. But the point of the entire thing is whether you start small or big, with huge money or little to none, starting is what must be done and let alone all the experience give you the idea on how tough it is in building it.

I don't think so, they have to do other things at least to meet their basic needs. Of course everyone wants progress, especially in their economy, financial conditions are the main problem in every family which is something that must be paid close attention to, because the difficulty of getting a decent income nowadays makes many families have problems, especially financially. So it's not surprising that they experience this problem.

If they really believe they can open a business, they can take out a loan for initial capital, and they have to manage the business so that it can be profitable because they also have to pay off the loan debt used for their business capital, with strong consistency I'm sure they can fix his financial problems.

Stable Job is what we need but we also need a passive or extra income so why not have
that job and do the trading because imagine that you are assuming to earn 10 folds in something that you
cannot be assured to happen? just do your Job that is paying you decent amount and just try to work
online in your extra time.

You can't just say that civil service is now going to be a waste of time, just because you already master the art of trading. Don't forget if who helped you when you are still starting. It will still be possible to trade even if you don't leave your civil service job, and it is still the one that can provide you a fixed income (not trading).

We predict what can happen in the future, so don't say that BTC trading's future is going to be bright. BTC might still be there but what if it will be banned in your country? I thought you are going to focus on trading earlier, but you also said that you will now focus on Bitcoin mining. Lol, is that a typo or what? But mining must be harder and less profitable than in trading. So, don't focus on it.

Our people stated we couldn't because of the vast amounts of flood, so we chose to quit the stream. Flood arrives in large quantities but stops in a few days, whereas stream comes in little quantities but never stops, but with patience, you will get the large numbers you want. So I will advise you not to get tired of civil servant work, no matter how little it is, you can use it to support your trading, one source of income does not provide comfort because needs are increasing every day, just focus and face the two sources to prepare for your tomorrow, even civil servant work has limits, there is retirement by age, which is 65 years, and retirement by years of service, which is 35 years, so what really matters here is we should just plan for tomorrow in any source of income we have.

I have no intention of becoming a civil servant, but I need money to establish my own business, which is why I must work for someone and make sacrifices for my independence. I would rather be a business owner or trader than a civil servant because I prefer to control things rather than be controlled, that is, I want to be the boss of my own life. Second, my income fluctuates, that is, it will increase or decrease and there is no limit for that, whereas a civil servant's salary is constant, it does not increase or decrease, and the needs are increasing. A businessman or trader earns money on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, whereas a civil official only earns money once a month.

maybe there will come a time where this can get too tiring and draining that you would want to just focus on doing one thing of course you can’t dedicate every waking hours of your life into working and trading you need to spend time with your family and friends, do your hobbies, loan some time for yourself and etc


agreed some people dive in without proper education hoping that they would not need anything but crypto once they just leave their jobs

If I can do both, I will do both equally, but if I need to just pick one, or prioritize one than the other, then I would choose my stable monthly salary job, and I can do some trading on my spare time. Doing trading involve financial risk, while having normal job just required us to do the work, the worse could happened if the business collapse is that we will lose our job, we won't lose any money.

Of course, everyone is going to pick trading/business. I mean...the profit is worth it. To be honest, I never liked the idea of working for the government, so, being a civil servant was never an option for me. But, the reason I'm going to choose trading would be cause, the profit would motivate you to do better. It's not all about earning more, it's also about being more productive. "Your success totally depends on you" kind of job is totally what i'll prefer.

The job you have must be your main priority, even though the salary you earn is smaller than the Bitcoin trading you do, but you must still be aware that trading in crypto cannot always provide profits, especially if you rely on short-term trading.  You should still choose both because your main job definitely earns you a steady income every month

Most people would prefer the latter, especially when they are young. It even seems more profitable money-wise, to earn ten fold all the time and then have a bad day once in while when you earn nothing. But the reality, of course, is more harsh than that. There can be bad weeks, months and even years when you choose to live independently, and for that many are not ready.

A government job is definitely good which will provide you an opportunity to spend your life in an orderly manner but there are financial constraints. That is, with the salary of the job, you can fulfill all the needs in your daily life within a limit. But if you do some other work besides the job like trading you can increase your financial flow through this work. It is not possible to do everything with the money of a job. Those who trade can get lots of cash money. Trading can definitely be a good source of income if it is well understood and managed. But there are risks factors. I think government job is definitely a good opportunity and if one can handle trading with it then he will be able to fulfill his financial condition quickly.

People should have multiple stream of income. With your monthly paid job and your side hustling which is trading then you are fine. Worst time that can happen to man is to have a single source of income. Both are good till you are confident one is better than the other and focus more

Unless you’re paralyzed from the waist down, I don’t think you should be making the choice between trading and full-time employment when you can literally do both and earn consistently and exponentially all at the same time.

Like picture this, you got yourself a solid 9-5 that earns you just enough so you can fund your lifestyle and trading to boot. And after you work, you spend at most 2 hours to lock positions and trade as well as check the market. It shouldn’t be that hard right?

If you seclude yourself to only one type of earning model, you’re isolating yourself from all the opportunities that could come for you. It’s great that you’re earning well through trading but let’s face it. It’s not as secure as having a good ass job. So if possible, don’t leave your employer and find a way to maximize both earning avenues so you can maximize your income potential too.

position of employment in different fields will make you allowed to recieve large sum of income because now a days the salary are not adequate to accommodate expenses of life which means that every other person is in struggle to find another job. It does not necessarily means that only trading should be a side hustle but you can search for any other job opportunity like that of setting a business in your desired field.

The price of petrol, edible things and other materials are so costly that a government servant cannot consummate the requirement of a home.  Remember that if you invest currently then it will be beneficial for your future and also for the generation after you because investment set a base for initiation of success.

Have you ask yourself the reason why some civil servants like to establish a business or going into crypto trading, because the moment the salary is coming, there are many things that will be coming with that salary that will not make the salary to last more than two weeks before it will finish. If you use huge amount of capital to invest in Bitcoin and hold it like one year before you can sell, you will make more than what civil servants will make a year which many civil servants that joined Bitcoin few years ago can testify about that. I prefer, business or crypto trading because any income you make from the business or trading belong to you and nobody can sack you like the way they use to sack civil servants without any quarry from their Boss.

You have a great growth mindset. Because this kind of mindset is what is needed to be successful and more successful in the future. We must not be fixated on the salary we receive regularly, but we must start setting aside the salary we receive to use as capital that we can use to grow. Whether it's with trade or with other businesses. What is important is the part or field that we master. Because it is quite risky if we enter a field that we are not really good at. Because that will only put us at risk of losing capital due to losses. Likewise in trading. There's a lot to learn before we get into it.

I am also a person who chooses to be my own boss in the real world. By building a business and trading. Even though it's not a big business, I'm proud of the business we run. And I also have the thought of always looking for additional income to invest in risky investments like Bitcoin.

I really agree that the main thing is to like what we are going to do because that will provide its own motivation compared to being forced to because of needs that might be sought in other ways.Liking our work will certainly give us a special enthusiasm because it is in accordance with the intentions we really want, so there is a certain satisfaction that will encourage us to be more successful.

Business is certainly something that is very popular because it means that what we do can be controlled directly by ourselves compared to working in government, which will follow agreed-upon rules. But doing business, of course, requires adapting to trends that we can follow, and the main thing is that funds must be prepared carefully so that they don't stop in the middle of the road.

I think business will provide its own motivation for those who are going to do it, because big or small profits will be influenced by the desire to do it, and it must be appropriate. Finally, I really agree with you that success will completely depend on those of us who do it.​

Just having desire isn't enough. We need a mix of resilience, strategy, and adaptability. Passion gets you going, but the never-ending drive to learn and grow is what keeps things going. Just think about it: every great business owner wasn't happy with their job; they were obsessed with making it better, adapting to new situations, and succeeding. That is the real secret sauce

Regarding business being a ship that steers itself, you're exactly right! We shouldn't sugarcoat it, though: this ship moves in rough water. You can't just follow trends; you have to be able to see them coming and lead them. And money? When they're gone, the business stops breathing. As the saying goes, businesses don't fail because they have bad ideas; they fail because they don't follow through on their plans and don't handle their money well. Take a deep breath before entering this area. In this gladiator fight, only the smartest, toughest, and most flexible people make it to the end. Are you ready for that challenge?

OP, you made it look as if trading gives money easily but that's the major thing, for me I prefer the income-based job and a business that I can be earning from no matter how small it is, this might enable me to diversify future, I am a kind of person that doesn't like doing a salary based job since it is among the options you listed, I chose it, I don't know much about trading, but no how it is been romanced by people I still believe that it's not an easy stuff, the risk is high too, I even prefer saving the money I earned from my job and investing it in bitcoin than trading unless in future I will be made to love it and learn more of it. I love business so much because it helps you to earn extra and strategize always for more.

Even though there are jobs that I don't like, I think I will continue to do them because I need money to survive. Indeed, some people may want a job that is equal to what they expect, but if they are already working but don't like their job, chances are they will stop working if they still have enough money and go back to looking for a job that suits what they want, but not with me who will continue to stay until I get a new job.

  because looking at the current situation, looking for or getting a job is very difficult, many people don't work and they want a job, so if you already get a job, it's better to just do it because everyone definitely has a desire, and in my opinion, if you get a job, it's better. It's good to do it without forcing yourself,  because if you force yourself normally the job won't be suitable for us, but vice versa, and if we can do the job we've got well, chances are we'll like the job we have.

Civil servants aren't just about money. You'll gain social status in the community with a fixed monthly salary and a guaranteed pension and health insurance.
while trading there is no guarantee of consistent and large results. there are even times when you lose too in trading.

iam still prefer and always selecting civil servants.
Only a fool would leave a civil servant job for something uncertain.

I agree with what you said, you can do both instead of just choosing one. It's better to have a wide range of knowledge than to just stick to one, we know that we can do it if we really have the courage. The only difference between us is that maybe I will also try trading because I already have a little knowledge about it.

I treat every job with respect.  Just as it is possible to earn money from this forum, it is also possible to earn money through government and private jobs.  And in your case you get the money to invest in BTC from your job.  But for now the job is essential for you.  A government job means a stable income every now and then.  Again investing in BTC means daily income.  Two benefits of two jobs.  So I would say if someone wants to do both jobs at the same time, he should learn to balance, only then he will be able to benefit.

Working for person had never been my thing, I prefer running my business on my own, but in life you must have to serve to be served. You must have to work for someone to raise capital for your business aspirations.
Fine in business you might incure some losses at some point in time, but I really do prefer something that reward me base on performance, because I know that I can earn more.

What I have understand in the OP is that he made a huge profit in trading higher than his salary from his job and even when the market will turn back to bearish he can still manage to be profitable. The main purpose why we go to school is to learn and to have a better a job in the future, we go to our school for our future. Now, if you can be sure in your future like you don't worry for your daily needs, do you still like to go to school? Definitely not. If trading can sustain your daily needs then there's no point of staying in your job with an 8 hours of work.

Easy money should never be an option when it comes to lead a life. Easy money goes the way it comes. But a steady income is like a blessing. If you can calculate it correctly and make a good budget, you can easily lead your life with that amount of money. In trading however, there is no certainty that you will always make profit. You win some and you lose some in that process. Taking that as the one and only way of making money in life is foolish.

What I can suggest is that, whatever steady income you are making, make a budget from that with which you can invest, not trade, invest into Bitcoin by buying and holding. You have your steady income and you also have the privilege of Bitcoin investment. In Bitcoin holding you don't have to do much. All you do is buy and wait. Why not take the best of both worlds?

Honestly, I admit that you are quite great at managing your finances, you are able to trade actively and also maintain your stable job in the real world, I'm sure it's not easy.
Before having a small family, I really liked opening my own business, but since I have a small family, I really want to have a stable income from a monthly salary, this is all to help my partner cover our monthly expenses, the past pandemic has really taught me to strive to have money at all times (whether it is savings - investments or a stable monthly salary)

The thing that is favorable for me is not suitable for you because of the choice and it is subjective, it changes from person to person. Some people want a 9 to 5 job because they want a steady income every month and these types of people are very lazy as they do not want to change their life. Some people want business or trading and believe in daily payment as they know that they have the potential and energy to do something great and they decide to work for themselves, not for the other company or another job. In a job, you will work more than your salary and you can do anything for your self even a single day off and in your business or trading you are the boss you don't need permission and when you go the market you can buy things without asking the price and I think this the best thing that I love in trading.  There are many other pros and cons of the job as well as business or trading but for me, my own business or trading is good over job work from 9 to 5 and getting the salary at the end of the month, or it would not bad if I relate job with slavery

I think so too, it would be good for us to have knowledge of not just one income, I myself prefer doing business, because doing business makes me know a lot of things, with the many interactions I have with many people, it gives me additional knowledge about things I don't know yet, and I think this is good because with business I also have real experience, I do it myself, I mean what happens with what I do in real life, not digitally. Meanwhile for trading,  I think it's a lot of understanding and learning, but business also requires knowledge. to carry it out, it's just that here I don't really understand trading, but now I'm learning a little about trading, because whatever is profitable for me, I myself will study it well so that I can generate profits which might also be good for me in the future.

I learned trading myself, I saw from the experience of many people who were successful because of trading, actually there was also a neighbor of mine who was successful with trading, but he didn't want to teach other people, because he himself said "I didn't get the learning for free  I pay for all learning about trading so you can make a profit." That's what he said but I applaud him for being able to prove it.

First I will advice you is that you shouldn't be too fast to quit your job for trading because you are now earning from trading. Before you quit try to make other alternative because it is not idea for you to depend on trading and have no hope on anything that is generating money for you. In trading anything can happen that you don't know how long you will be stranded,  for now think of creating something else for income before making trading as your only job.

It is very difficult to manage finances, I myself have tried many times to be able to manage finances so that they are stable but up to now I have often failed.
Regarding the desire to have a business or a steady income, it all depends on your individual needs. If you already have a family, of course there are many things you are afraid of, so you want a job with a steady income so that it can meet your needs with certainty even though you are already limited.
However, there are also people who have different thoughts, they believe and believe in doing business with the desire to get more than that so they have to do many things and work harder, I think it's worth it and I like it more.

Having a job and still continuing your trading is less risky but if you leave your job and totally become dependent on trading then it implies to the fact that you are doing wrong thing as job can continuesly gives you profit but with trading you cannot face winning situations all the time.

If you leave your job just for trading so when you loss money then neither you will have income nor you will be able to get profit from trading therefore Initiation of both trading and job should be done at same time. Trading is very risky so do your job instead of wasting money in trading but if you have knowledge then minimum amount should be paid for trading and give equal time to both trading and job as if you focus more on trading then a time will come when you will not be interested in job.

Does doesnt mean your trading you gonna make money from it , job is most preferred for me to earn money as hardest and the honest one , trading for me is just for side hastle and can't be focus n that coz you can't earn money without signal from other or good analysis so for me think outside the box always

Some people doesn't afford to do the both, which is trading and having a job cause just imagine being stressed at work then you would get drained at thinking analysis, looking at the charts, etc. It is not really advisable to leave your job since it's the stable income you get to provide all of your needs, cause if you are trading as a newbie, you would still be learning and not everyday you would profit so it's still risky. You can invest at yourself by learning trading and starting at a small amount first, from that you could already tell which one you should choose and focus with to get the fully potential and reach higher profits. Still, you must sacrifice one in the end of the day cause it's too tiring doing both.

it makes sense, in my opinion those who are already working with a clear income I don't think they should leave it just because of the trade, maybe it doesn't matter but it feels better to run both well, one is clear that it earns per month, but with trading it has its own risks where the finances that are owned may be lost just like that, if you really want to do trading, then of course you have to have enough money, and by having a job that earns a fixed income I think it can help.

But it all depends on the person, because there are people who only want to run one thing because they want to focus on what they want, but there are also people who are aiming for success by mastering all the things that are profitable. both are not wrong because it is their own choice, also with the results later they themselves will feel it. I myself prefer trading, but business also has an exciting side.

Government paid jobs aren't that bad as op make it seem as though there's nothing good to come out of it, except you are without a university degree that's when you can't really benefit much living as a civil servant of you're employed as a graduate yearly promotions takes you to the hierarchy of earning high and to crown it all it's a consistent and reliable income source, instead of quiting it for trading that is conspicuously not consistent in terms of making profit out of it especially within the bear periods losses are enormous no matter how good a trader you profile yourself to be. Combining the both in increasing your sources of making money is highly appreciable and wise than quiting your job or any other source of income to focus only on trading. Who does that?

Yes that's right. I think you still have to carry out your main job without having to quit your job, especially if you are already working as a civil servant, it feels strange to leave your job to focus on trading. It's best to do both, it will result in better finances in the future.

Indeed, being a good trader will automatically make you money. This is one of the few professions where the effort to improve instantly yields benefits. Trading may be difficult and risky, but it can also increase profits if parts of your overall strategy are successful.

It's always a good idea to have different sources of income, not just one. You have to organize your trading activities the way that it gives you several hours per day for doing something else. Don't sit and watch what's going on, put it on auto and do something else meanwhile.

Actually, it's not strange, but it just seems too confident in trading work, even though a job like trading also has its advantages and disadvantages. So it is not desirable for everyone to leave their old job which has become the main source of income for their own life when there is a new job that they can do at the same time. So it's actually not strange, it's just that it's more inappropriate to be abandoned because everyone knows that when they can work more on some jobs, of course the results won't be less.

What is called risk means of course there are advantages and disadvantages, because overall everyone will probably always be ready if their trading can always be profitable. However, some people are still not necessarily ready when their trading is not profitable or they experience losses due to corrections or even because of a change in trend from good to bad. So maintaining your main job by doing additional work at the same time is a pretty wise choice and also makes a lot of sense for everyone who wants more income.

That's right, when I had earned a trading income that was higher than the salary from my main job, the first decision I thought about was to leave my old job because the income from trading was very easy to get without being tied to anyone, even when we were asleep and the trading profits were working, but my decision changed when the bear market came and almost cut the profits in half. I realize that the risk of trading is very high and anyone can experience a high risk of loss if they do not understand market analysis and cannot handle the risk of market fluctuations.

So stay focused on your main job as a civil servant with an income above the minimum salary that you can get every month even though you are not too serious about work, but you can combine trading for additional income because trading activities will not interfere with your work at the office, you can trade while active in office work. Everyone wants to have more online jobs for extra income so there is no reason to leave a civil service job that already has a fixed monthly salary.

The cryptocurrency market is always volatile. Here you can get a good profit in trading, but there are risks of loss, and it is not necessary that you get a good profit in trading daily. Sometimes even experienced traders make losses here.Therefore, trading can be done as a part-time job, but it should never be made into a full-time job. Whether you are a government employee or a private employee, Whether running your own shop or any other business, you should never rely on trading alone.

Even if one is a very good trader, he may consider trading only as a second source of income. There are many opportunities in the market where the profit rate in trading becomes very low and often the risk of loss is also very high, so one can stay away from trading at such times.If someone has left his job for trading, then how can he remain financially stable in such a situation.

Honestly, there will be many conveniences, especially if you already have a permanent job and receive a monthly salary, we just have to do it regularly if we really want to enter the world of crypto trading. There is indeed an impression that the ideal investment value for a civil servant is, for example, 10% of total monthly income, the rest is to meet monthly needs, but if you are consistent I don't think there are any obstacles, just imagine it's like saving but in crypto, not in a bank, rather than putting 10% of the money We are there every month and every month there are administrative deduction fees from the bank.

If i am given option that you will do govt job or teding then i will choose govt job and after choosing govt job i will do teding. No matter how much I work, no matter how much business I do, it is possible for me to do all kinds of work as well as trading. Trading does not require extra time but we can do trading in the time we get between work. If I do government job then I will get salary at the end of the month along with all kinds of benefits so why should I leave government job and do trading only where even after my job there is opportunity to do trading. The amount of money I get from the job will work as my investment or savings and the money I earn through trading I will spend for myself and family.

I hope anyone will not be making mistakes of this, to be honest, many might be mistaking trading/investment for something else. Fine, there are some people who are trading for a living or relying solely on one investment or the other, but these people wouldn't have started that way. Some might not have any choice and eventually got to be trading or investing and things work fine for them. While some might have their jobs and still trading/investing to gain more. Generally, trading and investments are supposed to be a means to gain passively, not otherwise, but there is nothing wrong in making it a sole source of income if that is your passion and you are good at doing them. But no one should leave their primary job for any of them or believe from the beginning that they will trade or invest for the rest of their life without giving it the needed factors of safety to first ensure whether or not they are for them.

Trading/investments are not child's play, they could turn your life upside down if care is not taken, which is why I will even advise anyone that since they are not time-consuming or need a special place to do them, they can just continue to trade and invest at their spare time even as they find a good job to call their main source of income. This advice is important because trading is very risky and many are trading but how many are making the money from it? Only a few.

Do we often fall for the lure of easy trading income? You've learned the hard way that the market gives and takes with equal ease. Trading isn't easy. It requires market analysis and emotional resilience. Your experience illustrates the importance of income diversity. Holding onto a solid employment, especially as a civil worker, is wise and strategic. Why sacrifice a steady paycheck for risky market gains?

We'll now discuss the benefits of trading alongside your day job. You found a brilliant middle ground. Use your employment as a financial anchor against market swings. Trading can be a profitable side gig if done with a clear head and not as the main revenue source. We must remember that financial freedom requires balance. Why risk stability when you can combine a regular wage with trading profits? Isn't it about playing smart, not hard?

If you can take two opportunities simultaneously, why choose one? In the area where I live, civil servants are a dream job because there is no risk at all when people work here and old age security is guaranteed because they have a pension salary. Jobs in the government sector do not have many risks and we only work according to the task at hand. I see that there are many civil servants who work in other sectors such as business, YouTubers and other workers who do not disrupt their main job.

Trading can be done without working as a civil servant or not because it does not require a special place and time. But what needs to be understood is that trading is not easy to carry out because it requires knowledge and if someone is involved in trading without knowledge then the risk of losing money is much greater.

There are some government or private employees who are very interested in doing business or investing money in crypto currency because it becomes very difficult to go through the whole month with the salary they get, so they are very interested in investing money in business or crypto currency along with their salary.  If you can invest some amount of money in Bitcoin and keep it for a year.  You can earn more from Bitcoin than you can earn in a whole year from your job. I don't like to work I like to do business or trade cryptocurrency. The money that you earn by tat or business cannot be earned by working throughout the year. I don't like the job because I don't like the accountability in any work.

    I slightly disagree with you saying that trading can’t be done as full time job, during the COVID period when most companies were laying off workers people turn to trading as their new resort, and when they see potentiality of the market we saw the rise of worker filing for resignation just to focus on trading.  We have people who still trade and are very good at that,  they don’t just like the idea of working for someone or calling some one boss, trading made that an option for people to use to make money. Just like every other business or ventures, losses can be experienced, every businesses just looking forward to making profit more than the losses. You can’t just start what you have no idea of because you will get burnt without proper knowledge and training. 
    Nothing is impossible to achieve if you set your mind to it, with proper discipline and a good plan of execution. This save trading you claim is risky which is true has still turn a lot into multi millionaires in dollars, and again working other someone, nothing is guarantee for you, you can get laid off at anytime if you’re someone that doesn’t not have good proper savings, it’s going to be a tough time for such person whereas in trading you don’t have to answer to no one cause you’re technically a boss on your own. Personally I like the idea of working remotely so I will go for the tech jobs than being a civil servant.
