実業の魅力、それでも私は虚業で生きる

What is the difference between “real business” and work built around ideas, media, and digital products? In this episode, I reflect on my years in manufacturing sales and compare that world with my current work creating podcasts, audiobooks, and ebooks. Physical businesses offer clear feedback: products are made, customers respond, and results are visible. Digital creative work is less tangible, but it offers freedom and accumulation. After producing more than 120 audiobooks, I have come to value the fact that each piece remains as an asset. I know the world of real business, yet I still choose to create intangible work.
