    I can do as many hours as I choose,
    I don't get paid for annual leave,
    Yes I do have multiple clients, but this being my main one ,
    If I needed to I can get someone else to cover my work as a substitute
    :money: I will never be rich but I'm happy :rotfl:

    So this isn't really accurate?


    I've been in the same employment for 18 years and earn 12,000 a year,,,,,,,BUT as my employer didn't want to pay that 'I'm in pension ' we have all gone self employed last October, the only change is that I pay my own tax and NI.

    - The changes are quite substantial. You've 'lost' 5.6 weeks pay, you've lost sick pay, you've lost pension, you've lost redundancy.


    Your daily rate pre-tax is £65, you would earn more doing minimum wage work in reality if you count the benefits of employment.

    There are people all over the land in my situation,
    Rent a chair hairdressers are a similar thing ,
    yes it may not be ideal , but I'm happy to be working and earning , when we did the switch we all got an increase on our hourly rate.
