Advantages of Being Self Employed
Working for Yourself Has Numerous Benefits
You may be comfortable in your present job and might never have dreamed of breaking out on your own and starting a home-based business. The advantages of working for yourself however outweigh being employed by somebody else. Let's face it, time is your greatest commodity and it can't be replaced. Would you rather spend it as you see fit, or be stuck in an office cubicle and told to work from nine to five by a boss? Below are three reasons why you should consider working from home.
Job Security
Think about this, somebody else has the power to fire you at any time and for any reason. How long you've been working in a company is irrelevant. When you're out on the sidewalk trying to figure out what to do next, your only source of income (that which came from your boss) has been cut off. Does this sound like a secure situation to you? You'll have to start all over again. The reports of massive layoffs you see in your daily paper or on television are showing that in fact there is not much job security at all.
Long Hours for Little Pay
Most of what you earn doesn't go into your pocket. In fact, the money you get from your employer is skimmed off your paycheck in many ways. What are you left with? Only a fraction of what your labour is really worth. If you haven't already realized this, you're trading a great deal of your valuable time for a substantially smaller sum of cash.
Limited Experience
Talking about getting job experience might sound like a good thing. The reality, however, is when you do a specific job somebody hires you for, you will probably be repeating the same tasks over and over again. You're not getting much experience at all except at that one job and sooner or later you're going to hit a glass ceiling. The really important question here is if your job experience is going to be worth anything ten years from now.
If you decide that you'd like to set up a business at home, you'll have the freedom to determine your hours and pay.

Here are additional benefits of self employment.
- There are no office politics.
- There are no difficult co-workers, especially bullies and those who gossip.
- You'll be healthier physically, mentally and above all, financially.
- Go ahead, take a two hour lunch. Nobody will punish you for it.
- You can be creative and imaginative when promoting your business.
- You won't have to drive as much, which is a good thing. Your car is worth less every day that goes by, so does it make sense to pay higher gas prices and insurance rates for something which loses more value every minute?
You'll need to be focused on what you are passionate about, and it will take a lot of time and dedication, but it will be time well spent and working from home works. Millions are doing it, and so can you.
