I juggled for years being staff, was laid off in my twenties, worked for myself as "self employed for years...(much better) then went back to staff again, but two years in made redundant again.
Thought Sod this, formed my own limited company (I had three of four overall, moving targets and all that) and never looked back. It was so much better being your own boss and really working where you wanted to.
England, Holland, France, Italy, Germany, Romania, Japan, Spain, Belgium and even Scotland.......
I could choose where and when, generally on my terms (within reason)
