I work for a small business (consulting) and would like to start my own eventually (or just work for myself). I haven't done so yet, though.
My position for the company I work for now is teaching me the ins and outs of owning and managing a business (and the huge amount of paperwork that goes with it! Sheesh!), as well as the process of government contracting. I think in a few years when I have more education and a greater skillset under my belt it will be difficult to keep me from striking out on my own, at least part time. The difficulty in affording benefits just for myself makes that idea more daunting, though.
