I have always been an entrepreneur. Ever since I graduated university I have been self employed, and no, I’m not a big risk taker. I’m actually very risk averse, and being self employed seemed to be a very safe option for me as long as I planned ahead, and looked at how to mitigate risk as an entrepreneur. One of the best things I ever did to create job security and income security as an entrepreneur, create a fully funded emergency fund that would cover 1 year’s worth of living expenses if I couldn’t work, or needed to change or pivot my business. Having a large emergency fund bought me time and freedom, two things that a young entrepreneur values highly! Tune in to this episode to learn how you can be self employed AND create your own security net as an entrepreneur. You can do it with the right information and forward planning, and I’m going to walk you through the first steps to take!
