Title: Small business owners
Post by: allinyc on November 24, 2007, 05:10:17 AM
Didn't want to continue to jack the other thread but I can definitely relate to all the down-sides of being self-employed.  I'm not but as I said, my husband is..............

Alli, I completely missed this post the first time around!

DH and I own a business - well, two, when you count DT.  Dh does web development as a side business, though for a time it was his fulltime gig.  Now he has a 9-5 web job and does a little freelance work on the side.

He owns a high-end construction company with his best friend.  They do a lot of "landscaping" type stuff, like roof-top gardens, stone work on mansions, outdoor kitchens, roof-top decks and spas and such for people who have a lot of $$$$.

Knock on wood, the business has been doing really great despite all this talk of a "recession".
