That’s part of the issue, with consulting you’re forced to act and think like a company rather than an employee. It requires more research or hiring professional advisors. There’s potential tax benefits, but also corresponding legislation to ensure you and your clients aren’t dodging social security contributions. I’m sure once you have some experience it’s simple, but from the outside looking in, it seems slightly risky.

No more stupid interviews (they are hiring a company, not a person; I never had to do one because of that) and you have a safety net in the EU whatever happens anyway... Maybe I should write something about it as I have been doing it for 30+ years.
