Becoming an independent contractor might be the recipe for financial freedom to many people, and it probably is the best place to start looking for it. Still, other aspects must be considered once we become responsible for an organization, regardless of its size. For instance, if we are sole proprietors and someone working for us gets hurt while doing their job, they can sue us, and we'll respond with our personal assets. 

We can't prevent accidents from happening, but we can do things to protect our assets, the same way we protect our family and our businesses, and today's guest, Jerry Jankowski, explains to us how.
