There are many reasons why becoming self-employed is an appealing prospect. Not only does it give you the freedom to pursue your own interests, but it gives you the chance to choose your own hours and be your own boss. But when you work for yourself, you take on a lot more responsibility for your finances and your future - which can take some getting used to. 

While it’s important to build an income for yourself and get some steady clients, you also need to prioritize your future and make some plans to ensure you’ll have an income waiting for you when you retire.
