Do It Yourself
In this video from Your Life, Your Money, learn about entrepreneur Tim Bouchard who owns his own graphics and web design firm, which allows him to have creative control and a close relationship with his clients. Tim’s workflow is not consistent, and he also has to consider the costs of doing business. Tim takes 30-35% out of his income to cover taxes, and 15% for health insurance and expenses. Tim’s father, a financial advisor, encourages him to save for retirement. Tim also joins a local business group which provides benefits and business opportunities for its members.
