Date: May 25th, 2018 9:27 AM Author: sienna office digit ratio The problem with these studies is that people doing well are more likely to respond. That’s said, the average solo is doing quite well compared to the general population (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3986216&forum_id=2#36124894) |

Date: May 25th, 2018 9:33 AM Author: magical background story skinny woman I've been seriously exploring a move to solo practice lately.

Date: May 25th, 2018 11:32 AM Author: Cracking Theater Stage Idiot Too bad they have to pay for their own health insurance and have no pension plan or 401k match. 200k aint shit when you adjust for that. My bank = 5% 401k match. 3% pension. Full medical. And a 5% discount on the company stock. Thats like an extra 60-70k on top of my pay.

Date: May 25th, 2018 11:34 AM Author: galvanic massive toaster They get to write off medical as a business expense. Also, they do have a pension plan..it's called a SEP IRA and it goes tax-deferred until age 70. As a business owner, you can stash away $56k a year tax free.
On top of that, business owners can write off all kind of expenses including travel and entertainment. |

Date: May 25th, 2018 11:43 AM Author: magical background story skinny woman I'm guessing the rate of non-payment of bills goes up significantly to the extent that the solo does work for consumer clients instead of institutional clients. Plus, you have tobacco-smelling men in overalls in your office bitching about their problems. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3986216&forum_id=2#36125775) |
