Im self employed - I sell antiques on the internet.
There are pros and cons.
As an employee you may get paid sick and holiday leave but you have to tow the line and work the hours they dictate. Also you will get reamed for tax under PAYE with no opportunity to claim or offset expenses.
As a self employed person you are responsible for your own tax but can write off quite a lot of necessary expenses. For example as a self employed cleaner you can claim for petrol/car use travelling to clients houses, cost of equipment/supplies/personal protection (if needed) and so on.
You will also have a lot more freedom to organize your own routine and make it fit around your lifestyle.
I would never again want to do an "employed" job.
