Why Not A Freelance / Solopreneur Track At University

Recent highlights:

1. Both articles lead me to a modest proposal: with millions of professionals choosing to freelance on a part- or full-time basis, in a very fast growing range of professionals, we need a formal curriculum that enables future independent professionals to kickstart their freelance career with greater awareness, knowledge, skill, and confidence.

2. Up to this time, formal education at the university level has had just two professional career tracks legitimized and supported through university curriculum: entrepreneurs and career employees

The part-time bankers earning $200k

Recent highlights:

1. And it's possible to choose your hours to a much greater extent – while many of the freelance contracts being offered are for crunch time on private equity deals requiring 60-70 hours of work in a short period of time, there are some senior bankers (who can charge up to $250 an hour) doing a steady fifteen hours a week helping out in advisory roles, and consequently taking home almost $200k without ever having to book a tee time later than 11.30.

2. Of course, as time goes on, the junior analysts on $20 an hour will be promoted and get bonuses, which the freelancers won't

What Freelancers Should Know About Taxes

Quick summary:

1.  There are seven tax brackets for the 2021 tax year: 10 percent, 12 percent, 22 percent, 24 percent, 32 percent, 35 percent and 37 percent. 

2. While S-Corporation income isn't subject to self-employment taxes the way sole proprietor income is, if you elect to be taxed as an S-Corporation, you must pay yourself a salary in the form of W-2 wages that are subject to FICA taxes, which is known as reasonable compensation.

3. An S-Corporation does not pay tax; instead, profits and/or loss flow to the taxpayer and is claimed on their personal tax return

2022 Prediction: The Influence Of Web3 On The Future Of Work

Recent highlights:

1. This new freelance economy is different from the gig economy in that there aren't centralized corporations creating those jobs–the people doing the work have ownership of the end result.

2. In the gig economy, earning is linear—most people earn an hourly wage or per-gig wage, Lipton explained.

3. This model has led to a new freelance economy of sorts, where people can do work that they choose to do for multiple DAOs, and receive multiple sources of income on their terms

How to Fix Invoicing Issues and Get Freelance Writers Paid on Time

Quick summary:

1. You need to be able to delegate out things to people in the know, which is one of the key things OutVoice does is it allows people who are in charge of certain departments and who have all the relevant information to make decisions and then have people who oversee the sending of money, like accountants, oversee all of those decisions in real-time and flag or stop any of the ones they find problematic.

2. We all hear freelancers complain about getting paid late or not getting paid on time, but I don't really see a whole lot of people talking about what they're actually doing about it
