Do you want to be a big fish in a small pond or a small fish in a big pond ? If you work in a company, then you're a small fish in a big pond, because you work for others.And if you have your own company, then you are a big fish in a small pond, because you work for yourself. Viewed from the angle of the Economics, nobody would like to be controlled by others, so the best choice is to be a big fish in a small pond, but there is a problem of money and experience. My suggestion is: in the beginning, you work in a company and work for others; and when you have enough money and much experience, then you can set up your own company, and thus, you become a big fish in a small pond. Well, that is my opinion, what do you think ?
