Great tips, especially making sure your WiFi is in order. When I first made the move to self employment, my biggest roadblock was unreliable internet. That can absolutely kill your business.

We will not be ready to move for a few years. My Son is in his last year of high school and will be off to college next year. We are planning on downsizing our home once our Son has left the nest.
