Salary VS Profit

[CTO114]

Both salary and profit are both rewards for actions. Think about it; salary is paid in most cases just twelve times a year, yes twelve times, profit on the other end can be earned any day, and any time of the year, off course a return on investment.

Salary can be seen as a quick fix, working and expecting to be paid mostly at the end of a given period. Another thought is; salary is mostly paid by profit earners.

A steady turnover of profit in most cases is as a result of consistent entrepreneurial  effort.

The volume and impact of a salary and profit is incomparable with that of profit.

Plus what is reinvested from salary and profit is a big margin, it is more likely to reinvest a large chunk of profit, than that if a salary which is mostly used to pay accumulated bills.

Profit over salary, any time any day!

Isn't this oversimplification?

While there are employees who resigned and started their own business, there are also business owners who ended up being employees. And then there are both employees and businessmen.

There are pros and cons. Salary is regular, stable, gradually increasing even, comes with overtime and all kinds of bonuses. Profit on the other isn't guaranteed, volatile, needs capital, only comes later after recovery of investment, may not even come at all. But salary may be packaged with a strict boss, toxic workplace, burnout, overwork, and so on. Profit could mean less stress, being your own boss, less pressure, and so forth.

In other words, there isn't a simple formula for this. Businesses could be losing, go bankrupt, or yield too little profit. I guess what's important in the end is that you enjoy what you're doing and it sufficiently supports your needs and some reasonable wants.

Salary and profit are both outcomes of effort but the way they shape life is very different salary is predictable and steady it shows up twelve times a year like you said and that predictability helps people plan their monthly expenses bills rent food and savings it offers a sense of security because you know when and how much is coming. Profit on the other hand is flexible and can happen any time it’s the result of entrepreneurial effort taking risks building systems and finding opportunities while it doesn’t come with the same certainty as salary it can grow without limit in theory the more successful the venture the larger the profit and unlike a fixed paycheck it isn’t capped by hours worked.

Another key difference is reinvestment a salary is often stretched thin by recurring expenses leaving little to put back into growth profit however naturally pushes you to reinvest because you see the potential for scaling what worked once can be multiplied the cycle of reinvestment makes profit a stronger engine for wealth building. Salary keeps life stable profit builds wealth over time one is about security the other is about freedom depending on the season of life someone is in both have their place but for creating long term impact profit tends to outweigh salary.

If you only invest $10K it won't be as much as exchanging time for money.

Make money and manage money are different, if you make money, you don't have to think about anything because you only need to care how to work your best. If you manage money, your options could start from A to Z. If you wrong to invest your money, your money will gone. If you didn't choose a good asset, you only earn smaller than the inflation rate in your country + capital gain taxes you paid.

Both thing are important because most rich people didn't just quit their job after they have money, instead they switch from corporate slave/freelancer to be a businessman.

[The Cryptovator]

Are you talking about business vs. job? Or are you talking about crypto profits vs. a job? If you ask me whether to choose a job or business, I will choose business. If you ask me to choose between a job and crypto profits, then I will choose both. Because for crypto trading it doesn't need extra time. During the job you can manage your crypto trading. Though the job gives you twelve times, it's a stable income for us to make sure we survive well. We shouldn't leave a job for crypto trading, but you can leave a job for a real-life business from which you can make profits.

For the trading, you also need to be careful; your portfolio could be dumped instead of making profits for some time. That's why I said above I won't leave my job for crypto trading, which is really not necessary. The matter is profits from which sources have to be decided based on circumstances.

Salaries are paid by business owners who have made multiple times the value of the amounts they pay their workers. Apart from those in government payroll, I don't think any salary paid by private firms is guaranteed for longer period.  It's still very possible to turn your salary into profit by reinvesting some part of your salary into yourself to secure a higher revenue or starting some small side hustle to expand your income sources and generate profits from it.

A salaried worker isn't limited to their salaries alone even within their working environment, it's a mindset thing, you can upgrade yourself in an in demand skill within your organization and still offer that service to Co-workers still within your working environment and create residual income from it.

You can receive your work payment (salary) in weekly or monthly basis or even day basis, it depends on your occupation and your contract with the employers. Like in Bitcoin forum, if you are hired for working in a signature campaign, payment will be in weekly basis.

With profit, you did not write it clearly but by saying about daily profit, it is only possible with trading while trading is very dangerous and most traders lose money. You can skip trading, forget about it, don't trade, and focus on investment in Bitcoin (remember Bitcoin as it is a safest cryptocurrency for investment) and hold your bitcoins very long term. Profit will come after several years and if you divide 4 year or 8 year profit to total days, you will have good profit per day.

Not many people can earn a profit so they prefer to chase a salary by working in some work. Earning profit needs courage to start a business and face the challenge without stopping. They need to be creative than their competitor so they can make more profit.

Earning profit is not easy because they must work and find the right formula that can give them profit. It needs more research and test it before they can see their strategy works and make money.

Profit over salary, any time any day!

If you are a creative entrepreneurial person and diligently allocating your financial resources on investments, you be at better prospective positions to earn more profits than that of salary earners.
The ratio of employees salaries depends on the generated incomes of the company. Expenditures are always evaluated while salaries are disbursed based on income.

Even if you earns thousands of dollars as salary and think it is sustainable enough to rely on, it is a false because inflations will always chop it values off but on the smart move, you can creat your own resourceful opportunities, becomes your own boss in a path way by investing with your discretionary incomes if at all you must still have to be an employee in the long term.

I am sure we would not continue to have the employees energies for a lifetime, so to secure the bag, it is better to diversify our source of incomes to investments which give a more financial freedom not just for retirement sake but easing stress of generating incomes while it success may be riskier and or requiring more tasks than that of employments. It could though depend the nature of the firm or the area of investment if investing in digital asset, tech, stock or real estate.

[HasanHandy]

I think Profit has that unlimited potential while salary feels capped and predictable. But not everyone is in a position to take the risks that come with chasing profit.
A salary might not grow as fast, but it gives stability and security, which many people rely on. Profit can change lives if managed well, but it can also disappear overnight.

Maybe the smartest move is using salary to build enough cushion so you can take risks and pursue profit without putting your entire life on the line.

Not many people can earn a profit so they prefer to chase a salary by working in some work. Earning profit needs courage to start a business and face the challenge without stopping. They need to be creative than their competitor so they can make more profit.

People are often afraid of taking up challenges and prefer to remain poor or hidden under the shadows of an employer to make a living. Most times they are afraid of rejection and prefer to lay low but truth is that it is more beneficial to be daring and create something meaningful for yourself. You do not know what would give you the favorable breakthrough so you gotta keep the grind alive.

Earning profit is not easy because they must work and find the right formula that can give them profit. It needs more research and test it before they can see their strategy works and make money.

I love the adage that that goes like this "IF it is easy, then it is a playful task" No rewarding endeavor is easy. You have to put in the work and the commitment to make things happen, else nothing for you.

There is no comparison, of course, of being employed and owning a business or investments, because the first one is mostly a compulsion, something people do to survive and to earn a bread for themselves and their family, the second one is a choice that people make to have better life, a better work-life balance, and possibly accumulate wealth over time, which isn't possible through a job or barely possible because there are very few jobs that pay you enough to become rich over time with all the expenses you need to take care of.

The thing is, not everyone can choose the second option, because they can't afford to. Do you think every person can start a business or make investments? No, they can't, because you need extensive resources for that, and enough backup so that if things don't work out, you don't have to sleep on the road the next day. Talking about jobs and employment, almost any person can get that as long as they qualify for it, or at least have some sort of skill that they can use to make some money.

[Royal Cap]

First I want to ask you a question that what kind of life do you want? Do you want a tension free life or a tension filled life. If I have the answer to this question then I think you will get your answer yourself.
I think that investment is not for everyone because most people want a secure life. After which people cannot fulfill their various needs due to lack of money.

In this case, if you can invest in a business or something with a little risk, then you can profit two to three times the money you earn by working. I want to say this one thing that those who work, their companies earn about 10 times their salary. And at the end of the day they pay them little salary. So I think this matter varies from person to person.

[Ruttoshi]

It all depends on the individual. Some people prefer salary to owning a business because they are poor in business. Starting up a business is not easy and takes time to grow if you are not rich. I have seen a lot of people that their had their business and failed. This is because immediately, they set up the business, they have nothing left and started depending on the business for survival.

I would prefer both having a monthly income and also having a business so that, I don't depend on only one for survival. With the level of hardship in the country having multiple sources of income is good.

[Marvelockg]

Isn't this oversimplification?

While there are employees who resigned and started their own business, there are also business owners who ended up being employees. And then there are both employees and businessmen.

It's legit oversimplification and a lot of young folks have gotten themselves trapped in the believe that salary is not a big deal which has led them to start of businesses they know little about and in the long run fail to deal with the risk that's associated with running and taking care of a business.

There are cases where salaries can be more than the profit you get from your business and other instances when going after a business can yield more profits. Depending on what's on ground, either of the options can be either good or bad. If you're not wired to take the kind of risk that's associated with owning a business, don't go for that and if you're not wired to work for salary, do what works for you. Not every one will be a salary earner and definitely not everyone can stand to take care of a business and get profit in return. Profit or salary is person dependent.

Profit over salary, any time any day!

What work are you using as a reference for salary and what are you using for the profits, you need to explain the business model you are using for it. There are some salary that if you give me, I will quit my business and take the salary full time especially if it's a government work, you get paid for your job and not as stressful with risk of doing business and also we have some business I will never trade for any job, I will stick to my business full time.

However, if you can have the both there is nothing bad in it. There are people that earn from their job and also run their business so you don't have to depend on salary all the time and the same time the day ur business didn't work out, your salary will help you through.

[beveryu778]

You are basically implying own business over a job which I agree with. Salaries however come with securities and less stress of managing a company, one's focus is only on the job they are assigned to. But it is very hard to reach up financially with a job as compared to a successfully running business, which might come with stress, risks of loss but at same time many perks.

Earning salary is not easy. When you do a job, you always have to stay within a set of rules and work according to the target that the company gives you at any cost. So although getting a salary is a security, it requires a lot of hard work. But in the case of investment, if you can invest in the right place, you can easily get a lot of profit. But there is a lot of risk in the case of investment. If you cannot invest properly, your loss will be more than the profit. Investment will not provide you with any security. However, investment is able to give you much more money than salary.

After you have explained the definition, sources and characteristics of Salary VS Profit, why not try having a salary and profit at the same time, you can act as an employee and also run a business at the same time. I am still trying to increase my income even though I work as a private employee by seeking profits from Bitcoin investments and online businesses using social media platforms. This kind of side job doesn't take up much time and isn't too complicated because it can be done at night while relaxing.
When I have two sources of income from different professions, I can use my salary to cover my daily living expenses, while I use the profits to expand my business and, at certain times, I can also accumulate investment funds.

Your idea is definitely a good idea but running a business along with a job is very difficult you cannot maintain these two things at the same time. Because in the case of a job you have to spend a certain amount of time there and then your sleep, food and drink, giving time to family, and taking some rest are very important to keep yourself mentally calm. But if you can run these two together by working hard then after a few years you can skip the job and run only the business then you will not have any problem. But initially when you leave your job and start a business you will face many challenges if you are not financially strong.

There will always be employers of labor who will use the profits from their businesses to pay their workers and staffs and the higher the labor force, the higher the production and of which huge profits are expected. Since everyone do not have the capital to establish a business or start a company, there will always be salary earners but as a salary earner it is also important to save money to establish your own business such that you will also be an employer of labor. As a business owner, you can also choose to use the profits from your business to invest in valuable assets that can give you good profits in the future.
