Robert Flat Out State (and I believe in the right way), your home is not an asset, because it does not produce a positive cash flow. The housing bubble and compressor prove it right. According to Robert asset is something that gives you passive income when you not even work. And he is absolutely right about it.
It means when property prices go down, you are still earning the same from that property it has nothing to do with you because your income is depend on rent not on price of property.

Being an entrepreneur is less risky

Generally speaking, the owner is more dangerous than working for another person. I think, as a business owner, you provide everything self-contained skilful skills when you work for someone else. Anything with today's "somewhat grave" mentality if we are making more dependents

As a business owner has given me lots of freedom and innovative skills that I can use to work for someone else. Whatever the things I used for dangerous thinking or have never imagined before becoming a business owner, I am doing it now on a weekly basis.

    LIT1 Task A SOLE PROPRIETORSHIP: • LIABILITY – The owner and the business are considered as one and so the owner has unlimited liability for the business. Therefore the all of the owner’s personal assets, the business’s assets and the business’s future earnings may be at risk. • INCOME TAXES – All income for the business goes on the owner’s personal income tax returns whether federal, state or local. One advantage of the sole proprietorship is that the business is not a separate entity and therefore is only taxed once on this income, and another advantage is that all business liabilities may be written off as expenses to offset income.
