Any self employed people here?

i would totally be self employed except that i would not be able to get health insurance for any less than like 15$k

What type of gold plated plan are you looking at that is $1200/month.

Young and single should be no more than half that amount. You also get to write off that amount against your taxable income.

FFS! brianmanahan, you're not even 18 yet.
I'm quite sure that you are still covered under your parents Health Insurance, no?
Or do you get a Government check & Medicaid?

Engineering & physics consulting with some expensive s/w & fast computers (Tesla GPGPUs).

Hours? All of them. But that is what you do when you do what you like.

If you have little kids at home, don't
If you have big kids at home, don't
If you have a wife at home, don't
If you do not have more than *1* customer, don't

If you don't mind having a coffee cup at the IRS with your name on it AND they recognize you voice when you call ... go for it.

I used to have an S-corp, was making a ton of money, but it was not worth the loss of work/life balance and ended up dissolving it.
