Did you know the typical small business owner works three to four months just to earn enough profit to pay taxes? Whether you've been in business for several decades or are breaking ground as a new entrepreneur, taxes are a significant expenditure. They must be accounted for and incorporated into your business plan from the very beginning. Failing to account for taxes when planning, budgeting, and assessing revenue goals for a business is like failing to account for the expense of your rent or mortgage.

This concept of "being your own boss" is undoubtedly an alluring one. Nonetheless, not everyone can be a boss - not one decent or effective, at least. If you are actually an employee of someone (not a boss), it is perfectly natural to fantasize about owning a business of your own on those days when you are fed up with your current boss or work. The rags-to-rich stories you hear about entrepreneurs who have turned their visions into millions or even billions of dollars, make your fantasy even more attractive.
