Not necessarily. I think that employment has a higher job security floor but a lower job security ceiling.
_In a way_, employment is like having a single client. You have smaller variance month to month but are more prone to unexpected events in the company you work for.
You can build financial resilience by having multiple (preferably diverse) clients.
Another thing to take into account is that you are not in control of being laid off or a client not extending their contract with you. But you are in control of your own savings. And this applies in both scenarios.
- career_question 1y agoI hadn't thought of it in this way, security floor vs ceiling is a very interesting way to look at the matter.
- datadrivenangel 1y agoThough if your clients share correlated retention factors, systemic changes could still result in large drops of revenue.
