I refuse to "work for the man" (or "the woman" for that matter)

I've worked "for pay and benefits" all my life. College educated as well as a life-long learner and student of life, I FINALLY decided to work for myself...my motto is "I don't work for money, I work for people". I am a licensed professional in financial services (Life, Health and Medicare Supplemental LTC Insurance Provider) and I will NEVER work for hire, for hourly wage or "for" someone else to get rich ever again. I make more in commissions that equal about $50+/hr on my slowest weeks. That equals about what I was making "in the system" in office work until March 2011. I encourage EVERYONE to consider self-employment.

@Elevatorpitches Hi. I am an Independent Licensed Life and Health Insurance Provider in 4 states. I don't even pay for a platform fee or E&O. I am a 1099 worker. Cost me NOTHING to enter the local group. I figured the cost of licenses; about $600. My perfect "job". I don't punch a clock, earn hourly or weekly (weakly) and MAKE MY OWN SCHEDULE and MONEY.
