I have my own business and also work for another company. I make great money on my own, but get my benefits and a steady good paycheck through my employer. You need to start your business while you are working. Make sure you have an income while you are building your business and get to a point where you can just work for yourself. Trying to start a business with limited income is almost impossible. The stress if it alone will kill you. You will pretty much be working 2 jobs (80+ hrs a week or more) it will be exhausting but very rewarding when you are working when you want for yourself. Just a couple of things to think about.
