Valuable employees are always irreplaceable, that's what I believe in.
And I hope you won't take this wrong but I think it would be a much better thing if you would be hands-on and not just leave it to people you think you trust.
You're dealing with money sir, and money as you very well know is a very tempting reason to turn your back and even bite the hand who feeds you.
That notion of being employed by your business is a sign of inferiority complex (I'm not saying you are)... When you're where you are as you say you are, then doing hands-on work would only build your self esteem. the thought na, hey I'm working in my own company and I'm proud of it. I personally know several owners of big and successful businesses who are hands-on and whew! I respect them soooo much...
Check your books (not the books you read huh?), there might be discrepancies there... humot baya kaayo ang money...
I'm just concerned because I know some riches to rags stories first hand and it all happened because wla nag hands on ang owner ng company... a wife can cheat on her husband regarding money matters gani, why not someone else pa?dba...
I'm not saying you work your a$$ off...
Even if you don't agree on my being employed, I hope you will take my advice on that.
hmm.. i reflected on your post.. i guess my work is building busineesses.. im an employee of my passion in building sef-supporting systems that generate me income..
hehehe
thats one of the secrets ive learned in businessmaking.. you have to learn to create checks and balances.. maski pa i dont trust the person, as long as he is adequately competent sa iya trabaho.. he can perfom his job. without me worrying...
maski pa dili ako nag directly manage.. i can detect mga binuang..

thats something i also learned over the years.. daghan mga things nga i find lisud iexplain.. there are things only those experienced in business knows.. its like describing a color to a blind-from-birth person.. we want to share, we just dont have the words to describe them
thats another myth in having a job.. there is nobody who is irreplaceable.. the bosses know that if someone knows he is a very crucial person.. that person can dominate the business.. thats why employers have checks and balances to prevent a single person from becoming too powerful..
there is a tradeoff kung hands on ka or dili.. kung hands on ka, grabe imu control and dako imu kita kay gamay imu overhead.. but mao lage.. you only have two hands, occupied kaau ka.. thats why dili ko mag hands on directly.. i use the hands of other people to do the micromanagement, kanang taas nga overhead, mao jud na consequence.. my hands gives commands and directives to a couple more hands. thereby increasing my capacity.. my businesses generate me income even while i sleep or party somewhere.. i wont expect to have such previledge if nagwork ra ko..
para nako time is the more valuable asset.. rather than directly work myself.. id rather let others do the work. that way i gave them some honest source of income and in return, they give me the capability to multiply the work done with little effort from me..
basically, i use the concept of outsourcing to a higher level..

that is my leverage..
ps...
kining mag negosyo dili binuang.. gi saun2x ra nako dire describe. pero kung wala ka guts, determination, patience, imagination, leadership. di jud ka magdugay.. mas demanding ni ang magnegosyo kay sa maski unsa nga klase sa trabaho.. kining mga qualities ako gimention, you need atleast 3x more as compared as nag trabaho lang ka.. and dapat naa ka a bit of a gambler..
