Should You Build Skills At A Top 1% Company Or Start Your Own

About this video

Sam and Shaan debate whether to build skills through employment before starting a business versus jumping into entrepreneurship immediately. They discuss the trade-offs between financial stability and side projects versus full commitment to founding, exploring when employment makes sense versus when someone should pursue their own venture.

Key takeaways

  • Sam argues the fastest way to build entrepreneurial skills is to start a business now rather than preparing through other jobs or roles, as each market and business is different
  • Shaan counters that learning from experienced people early in your career helps you avoid obstacles, citing a mentor who delayed starting her company to gain expertise first
  • Not everyone wants to be an entrepreneur—some prefer the stability of employment and working on a small team without the full stress of business ownership, and that’s a valid choice to be honest about
