My goal is to make a switch from being a developer to being a 3D artist. I’m not exactly sure what my specialization will be, if any, but for the purpose of being an artist, it makes much more sense to be an independent contractor. If you have been following my blog for a long time, you might remember I had my own company (RaRe IT Services). Since I took on a regular job at some time, I liquidated the company, because it meant a lot of extra paperwork for the tax authorities. Things have changed a lot since then. The registration has become a one-time fee. When you are below a certain revenue per year, you don’t have to struggle with taxes, there is no mandatory external bookkeeper, etc. Basically, owning a company (if you would like to call it that) became a lot easier. So I’m contemplating the registration. I would mean I could use my company name, and hopefully get some traction already. Of course I will keep you updated.
