It's very important for this to notice the difference between being self employed and being an employee of your own limited company. If you are an employee of your own limited company it would usually be better to have the company make the contributions instead of you.

It might be a good move for MSE to produce an article and even calculator to help people to consider the company or sole trader choice, though advice from their accountant would still be the best way.0
