Good luck with whatever you have chosen to do Joe, I have been self/employed for 20yrs and have not regretted it-in the main people dont
make good money working for someone else, it can be worrying sometimes but  you get out what you put in,GO FOR IT!

Good on you Joe and best of luck in your chosen field
I have been self employed all my working days and wouldn't have it any other way
As landroger says it can be worrying at times (especially when the phone goes quite! ) but on the whole the advantages far outway the disadvantages if you are prepared to graft  -  and anything you bolt onto you Landy is tax deductable ! .....................in my line of work anyway

hope all goes well for you! mate of mine set up with a few mini-diggers, rarely has time off! (raking it in!!) :lol:

It has been said that, given enough time, a million monkeys bashing at a million typewriters would eventually produce the complete works of Shakespeare. Thanks to the Saxo forums, we now know this to be wrong
