Today is the cost-benefit analysis of working in a corporate setting versus working for yourself

* Random supplies
Negatives

* Answer to a boss
* Work looks the same ~ no change in scenery
* No matter how much or how hard you work you are stuck at a salary or hourly wage
Self employed /start up
Positives
* Create your own hours
* Ability to work on the projects you want to work on
