text: how can you stop your boss from controlling you financially ? motivation techniques are becoming methods of control to keep people working like crazy for that promotion that they never get and their jobs start becoming like the casino. the more you work the more they owe you and the less likely that you would leave.   how can you beat that ? simple.  become your own boss.  it's the only way.  but you have to really have what it takes to be an entrepreneur, and not everybody does.  it takes vision, determination, creativity, and a lot of survival instinct to make your own business happen.  your new boss will be a real slavedriver, you will probably work harder than you ever have in your life.  you'll be on one heck of a roller coaster, but it will be your rollercoaster.  if you've got the guts to be a survivor in the world of entrepreneurship, go for it!
