Employee vs Freelancer - The Big Debate

Send us Fan MailWith nurses being furloughed during this pandemic, it made me really stop and think about this topic and why Freelancing is better than being an Employee.1. Growth in incomeFreelance - You can grow as big as you want with clients.Employee - You are stuck in the hospital environment, making the same wage, working the same amount of hours.2. Growth in SkillFreelance - You can expand your skillsetEmployee - You get stuck at the bedside unless you want to be a manager or practitioner, but even then, there is a cap.3. TaxesFreelance - Business expenses for taxesEmployee - Your hospital is taxing you ever paycheck - that's why you almost vomit when you see the gross and then your actual paycheck Is being an employee better?1. Security - is it though? Furloughing proved that wrong. Pensions aren't given, no matching with retirement2. Don't have to find clients - Sure, it's easy right? You go to work, do a job, and come home.Mentioned on the showInsiders GroupImplementation Co-op Walmart Grocery AppGina Horkey's episodeLike what you heard?
