Neither me or the other poster were discouraging others. I was warning them
about realities of being on your own. For your information I have never
worked for anybody. I have been on my own since finishing school. I have had
some really great times and really bad ones.

I just want the OP to know that it is a long road. Be prepared for it. If
the OP comes to think that this is discouragement, business is a long way
off.
