Pat is not sure if he should hide his affiliate links ... well he does now (end of 2013) ... seems he made up his mind ...
... and we have reached September 2009 ... his income report for August 2019 is up a couple of hundred bugs, has not reached its former height, but more than 9.000,- is not bad at all ...
After one year of self employment, Pat gives five reasons why you shouldn't:
- You are responsible for everything, you make your own decision, nobody tells you what to do ... of course that's one of the reasons to become self employed ... but sometimes you would like to hand over that responsibility and just do tasks somebody tells you to do ...
- You are master over your time, you can schedule on your whimsy ... which again is nice, but sometimes, you actually will do nothing, and other times you do too much ...
- Procrastination ... it's really much easier to achieve a mind of procrastination than at a work place where your boss looks over your shoulder all of the time ...
- You are sooo alone, no coworkers, ... well that depends on the size of your company ;)
- No benefits, ... true, you get no retirement plan (actually not true, set up one yourself!) ... no medical, or dental plan (again, setup one yourself!) ... no paid vacations (wasn't the idea of passive income, to get paid even when you are not working?) ... no free lunches (... which you actually can pay for yourself when you earn more ...)
