10 cpl

In Reply to: To the IC's is 10 cpl based on 65 characters a good - MT

I have made it for 20+ years and now just raised to 11 cpl on one account and 12 on another.  When you are an employee you pay your taxes, except for the 7.5 of SS, your employer just holds it for you.   Very rarely do you have your insurance paid for completely nowadays either.  So weight it out.  I have a lot more deductions that I take so I have more usable income.  I don't take a lot of vacations but do manage long weekends with or without coverage.  If you can get you own stable accounts, and you are good you can do well.  I have had my accounts the oldest for 20+ years and the newest for 5.  I have made as high as 60K and as low as 48K in the past 5 years.  I am divorced, have my own house, save for retirement and doing okay but it takes several years to get there and you have to put in the hours at first especially if you are looking for your own accounts.   I just don't know if you are going to get your own accounts or work as an IC for a large company. E-mail me if you have any specific questions.   Patti
