minus-squareessell@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 month agoSame. Also self employed. Got plenty of work lined up, savings, pension, cheap mortgage. Each year looks a little better than the last one. I think part of the reason it seems everyone is struggling is because of two reasons. One, lots of people are struggling. Two, no one wants to hear from the few who aren’t.
