    I really can say much except that this is a great primer for the self employed/independent contractor.

    Personally, I think this will become increasingly important as layoffs continue to rise.

    If you have been laid off or think you might be given the forced early retirement notice, read this book.

    I recently a started an S corp for my software contracting. The book is helpful and worth the price. It won’t answer EVERY question you will have, but you probably should talk to a CPA for those anyway.
