mohsen··on Poll: Do you work for "the Man"?
so you are a freelancer and your employees are freelancers as well, and you're wondering if that makes you owner of a company?

well in that case i wouldn't consider you a company just because you hire freelancers. if you are a person who gets gigs here and there and then passes parts of it to someone else for a cut, i doubt that would be called company. however, if your projects come in at a steady and reasonable rate and you pass parts of them to others to do, also at a steady and reasonable rate, then i think you have a company, good sir!

but of course there are other factors as well: 401K, benefits, etc.

mohsen··on Poll: How much do you average per freelancing gig?
just a suggestion. maybe you can create a training system, where people can "shadow you", and the possibly take some of the load off of you. of course i understand that the work is complex, so perhaps someone with the necessary academic background, but not fully knowledgeable of the tech side yet?
mohsen··on Poll: How much do you average per freelancing gig?
that brings up a question for me. when you say $15K/2weeks, is that for a task that can be accomplished by a single person (2x40h), or do you have to break the job up amongst other people?

Thank you. Some really good points to think about.
