How Henry Got Into Business For Himself: “I realized years ago that working for someone else was not going to allow me to do the things I wanted to do. It wasn’t totally a financial thing either. The thought of two or three weeks holiday a year and the daily grind of traffic just didn’t cut it for me.”

Best Thing About Being Self-Employed: Freedom. “When you fall into a routine working for someone else, you may not like it, but you kind of accept it. You wind up putting your thoughts of freedom in the back of your mind. It’s one of the great traps in life. Now, I work at home when I want and take walks on the beach near our house when I feel like it.”
