    One of the worst financial decisions I ever made was going into business for myself with no cash on hand.

    I had no ability to turn down clients, took clients I had bad gut feeling out because I needed to pay rent, and had over a decade of constant scrambling and dealing with shitty clients on small potatoes contracts.

    Next time (if ever) I go out on my own it’s gonna be with a big enough buffer to be able to maneuver.
