SELF-EMPLOYMENT OPTIONS

Depending where you are in life (considering age, interests, finances, etc.) you may want to consider self employment as an option. No one totally retires anymore and most of us will always need some source of income, even in retirement. Self employment is one option that many of us do not consider seriously. If you are considering a career change, or looking to create a way for some retirement income, consider working for yourself. Obviously, your financial needs will dictate the following considerations.

Ø Franchising (perhaps with a partner)

Ø Purchasing an existing business

Ø House cleaning service (develop a customer base and hire workers)
