When I say “starting a business” I mean just that. I don’t have a steady stream of clients and I definitely do not intend to quit my 37 hour a week civil servant job, it’s secure and pays the bills to keep the roof over my head. I’m 27 so not far off your age either. I’m not currently semi pro, I would LIKE to be semi pro. This would technically be correct (as discussed in the other post, lol) as I would hopefully be making extra money, not all of it. Semi profession so to speak.

That said, your advice, or real life take, seems spot on to me. I don’t expect things to be easy. The Mrs already gets a bit peeved when I come home from a shoot and then sit at the PC for the rest of the day editing and social networking my images. And she is the one who wants me to do it….women eh. Like most people, they don’t understand how much work is involved, hahaha.

 

This probably would make more sense to someone living in the UK as I said the laws and red tape will be different. But thanks all the same for your post, much appreciated  :o)
