Self-Employment Versus Real Employment

I would like a job, and to be self-employed as I’m the sort of person who has many irons in the fire. This is simply the way I am. I’m trying to keep my head above water financially right now, as I like doing different things with my day, not sticking to just one item. I’m a scanner-it means I change careers a lot, due to having multiple interests. Real employment is a let down sometimes because I work for someone else, but like my SCORE mentor said, get a job first, and then start my businesses. I’m also tempted to get a franchise going, if it isn’t too expensive. First order of business though is to get my hernia out, so that will happen before my career settles down into something organized and recognizable.
