Go for job simultaneously you do stock trading/small financial business. When your business picks up well leave the job.

Hey! Great question — it’s totally normal to feel stuck at this stage. Here’s a practical way to look at it:
### Job vs Business (especially right after articleship and CA finals)
**Job:**
* Gives steady income and exposure to structured work.
* Helps you build a strong foundation and network.
* You can learn practical aspects, deadlines, client handling, etc.
* Less risk, and you can continue preparing for your business later.
**Starting Small Financial Business:**
* Good for practical exposure and understanding market/business directly.
* Higher risk, especially if you’re new to entrepreneurship.
* Can be done part-time alongside a job initially.
* Some examples: stock trading (with caution), financial consulting, bookkeeping for small businesses, or tax filing services.
---
### What I suggest:
* **Start with a job first** to get hands-on experience and stable cash flow.
* At the same time, **explore small financial business ideas part-time** like freelance tax consulting, bookkeeping, or advisory.
* Once your business gains momentum, you can transition fully.
---
### On which business to start:
* Financial services related to your skills, like:
* Tax filing and consultancy
* Bookkeeping for SMEs
* Mutual fund or insurance advisory (with proper licenses)
* Stock trading or portfolio management (with proper knowledge and risk management)
* Accounting services for startups or small companies

Would you like help with ideas on how to start a small financial services business part-time while working? Or maybe tips on finding the right job after CA finals?
