Brace yourself Rodney !!!!! ROFL. :-)

A lot of people ask why we pay for liability insurance. Here's why.
I was in a mansion house (a very old and very expensive family seat,
mansion house), and I set fire to a rug with the sparks from an angle
grinder.


Indeed. £2 million for about £15 a month, its a no brainer. I only have
the £2 mill because of the Fair Trader scheme, its a requirement. I

started
with £1 million for about £9 a month, well worth it.

We pay close to £1,100 a month, but it covers 15 employees and their tools
and any liability occurrences (which are non-existent at the moment, touch
wood). Still worth every penny when you think of the contracts we have.

Insurance is a great backup to anyone who works for themselves. I've known
one man bands to go under, even just at the thought of having a 100 pound
compensation bill to pay. For the genuine self-employee, insurance is
something that can save your whole living.

But, if you can't learn through the mistakes, you ain't doing it right in
the first place. :-)

This time next year, Rodney. We'll be millionaires. LOL
