One of the biggest worries as someone who is self employed has to do with getting paid. When you are self-employed, you are essentially providing a service or a product up front, with no real surety that you will receive what you are entitled to.

Hi Miranda.

We had some local major building contractors who were known not to pay their sub-contractors for work when it was done (going against the legally binding contract). They were really "cute" - they held the reigns on all the big projects, and would pay for the last job only if you did a second job - always behind one lump-sum payment. Everyone knew, and everyone hated them. Lots of smart tradesmen went into home improvement to skirt the issue, and did very well.
