"I think sometimes we complicate our situation by comparing it to what other people are doing, or what they think"
This is a very good reality check!

It depends on so many things....and only you can answer if it's worth it for YOU. By asking "is it worth it?" are you asking if it's worth being a renter instead of an employee? If that's the case.....how much is your freedom worth? I currently only work part time in nails....and am a renter. I could probably make more money if I was working on commission, but I would NEVER want to do that. The freedom I have to work whenever I want, and on whomever I want, etc etc is worth whatever money I am giving up by renting. I enjoy being my own boss, and hope I never have to give that up. If you're asking if it's worth staying in nails, or would you be better off doing something else, weigh all the pros and cons....as they apply to you. Do you enjoy doing what you do? Is there something else you would like to do that would bring you enough money to make it worth doing that instead? Can you cut costs a bit, or work a little more, to tip the scales? Do you have an amount that you could work towards, and raise your prices a little to get you closer to that figure? So many variables....but the bottom line is this......Are you happy with the way things are, and are they working for you? I personally find if the answer to both of those is yes; then why would you want to change a thing? I think sometimes we complicate our situation by comparing it to what other people are doing, or what they think. The truth is, nobody knows what is right for you except you. Have the best day ever! _____ Date: Sun, 20 Mar 2011 11:40:04 -0700 From: [email protected] Subject: NailTech:: after expenses To: [email protected] After I looked at everything I took in and everything that went out, I'm upside down with over 60% going out. I pay rent that is reasonable, I charge the going rate on my services and I stay pretty busy. I did all right considering that I only work three days a week. But with so much going to costs, is it worth it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NailTech" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
