I run my own gig. I have more holidays then if I work for someone, a very good pension from the company and more benefits then I could ever get being paye.
It has taken me a long time to find a business model that works well for me and make a good profit but in tree work having your own thing is the only way to make real money.
I have yet to see a job advertised that puts you in the 40% tax bracket working for someone else.
It is a good idea to look forward in any career, especially something like tree work that does take a toll on your body so thank you for some very helpful links.
