Pay it yourself....Part of the freedom

Yup! Along with the freedom comes the added responsibilty of not being under Big Brothers protective wing. It's a lot of hard work but once you get it going it's SOOOO worth it!

That's right, and everything else.

I always say a business takes at least 5 years to get on it's feet before you start to make money. So hunker down and watch those pennies in the beginning, it will suck now but be worth it in the end.

And don't forget you will be thinking about your company 24 hours a day.
