Self-Employment Lies
1. Only people with very specific and in-demand technical or professional skills can make a living working for themselves.
2. Consultants and other self-employed people have a tough way to go because their work is so sporadic.
3. It’s safer to stick to salaried employment than to strike out on my own.
