Related, corporate jobs have as much embedded career risk as entrepreneurship, and maybe more. Boss doesn’t like you, company merges, you’re not good at politics, etc. Any, and more, can be career killers.

Good point but that’s from your/my perspective, I found. They don’t look at it as wage slavery. They see themselves as doing what they’re meant to do and playing the narrow “game” they like to play! (This realization in my 20s is why I knew I had to get out of BigCo ASAP!)
Agreed. I had the same realization very early in my 20s. I got fired (not laid off, but fired.). I figured it would keep happening and I thought that the skills needed to succeed in a traditional role were not my strong points, so I took the plunge into the unknown. Glad I did.
