Time is Money

Being self employed has it’s benefits and it’s drawbacks. It’s great because Doug can take time off whenever he wants, but on the flip side if you don’t work you don’t get paid. As a contractor he also makes more money per hour than the salaried employees but he doesn’t get the benefits (even without the bennies we still come out ahead).
