I think the generally accepted opinion is that if you do the work then you are are not a "business owner" as without you there would be no business to own - you are therefore self employed. Only when you come off the tools or only complete a small portion of the work can you be said to be a business owner.

Cheers, Tom

Are 'self employed' and 'business owner' not two ways of saying the same thing?
They're eeeting the dogs.
They're eeeting the cats.
They're eeeting the pets,
of the people who live there.

The reason behind this poll is to highlight a youtube video I watched last night. I have already read his books but I think actually hearing him has really hit home a good few points.
Take an hour off the tv or on here and it 'might' help a few people out.
Some really interesting points and suggestions.
Enjoy.
