Unemployed โ "You are not serious.
Working 9-5 - "You need to think bigger.
Entrepreneur - "Why leave your job?"
Making money - "You are lucky."
Not making money yet - "What have you achieved?"
Promoted - "It's connection."
Changing careers - "You are confused."
Staying too long - "You lack ambition."
Lesson: Build your life at your own pace. People will talk anyway.
