The world of freelancers is usually clandestine. Many list themselves as
employees of their own LLC, partnership, or trust-owning corporation. Is growing
due to corporate layoffs with large acquisitions and ease of entry into Internet related information businesses as affiliates.
Did you know that the average executive changes profession (not job) five times
during your working life? We just hit the 300 million US population mark,
with 145 million employees. Does that mean that half the population is retired, a
child or unemployed? Exactly.
Most of the smart people can’t understand the statistics, they ignore them and stay in the
darkness about future economic changes. The US Department of Labor reports that 12.2 million of us are self-employed. Only 5% of women own their businesses out of the 65 million working women. Twice as many men are self-employed, some 8 million.
Yes, correct statistical information may well affect your personal financial life.
the zinger
Does age count when it comes to layoffs? Is the middle class (90% of Americans class themselves as middle) being squeezed by outsourcing, downsizing, and mergers and acquisitions?
Here’s an example about illegal aliens destroying the middle class that
remember forever. In Chicago in the 1990s, the meatpacking industry paid its workforce $19 an hour. Today they pay $9 an hour (not middle class) because their workforce consists mostly of illegal immigrants.
Property taxes, school tax, state and federal income taxes for the middle class are at a confiscatory level in 2006. The number of bankruptcies filed by individuals and
mortgages in foreclosure rise to the height of the Empire State Building.
When attorneys advise clients to sell their homes to avoid bankruptcy, the answer is: to whom?
Nano-niche
Nano is defined as very small, derived from the Greek meaning dwarf. Niche, it doesn’t matter
how you pronounce it, is it a segment, place or position. Small businesses often struggle to discover and then maintain their specific niche market.
Do you have an area of expertise that sets you apart? UCA (unique competitive advantage) is often the difference between $30,000 and $150,000 a year. Your competitive edge, the knowledge and skills that catapult you onto the fast track
guarantee your nano-niche.
We live in the Knowledge Economy and its currency is information. How does this affect the middle class? Remember when IBM recently announced laying off 30,000 employees (98% middle class) and moving plants to Asia? GM and Ford are in the same boat. These three companies are saying goodbye to long-term employees with big purchase checks.
Assume an average age of 52 for these executives and you have them earning in
its maximum level. Competitors will not hire them with their previous compensation.
in addition to benefits because Human Resources directors can train young candidates with master’s degrees and 3 to 5 years of experience for up to sixty percent less.
You have to have a nano-niche because these people are practically unemployed.
The reality is not moving to another state, taking two low-paying full-time jobs,
and getting your teens to flip the hamburgers at McDonald’s often becomes
a subsidiary of a successful Internet company.
Investment costs for an operational website, including incorporation, are less than $3,000. A few hundred dollars for a Dell computer and you’re working from your home office. The federal government can help you with large deductions for your car expenses, perhaps a training allowance, and even allow you to deduct a room in your residence as an ongoing business expense.
