The problem with these studies is that people doing well are more likely to respond. That’s said, the average solo is doing quite well compared to the general population

I've been seriously exploring a move to solo practice lately. They say you should have enough money to live on for several months before starting. That's the only obstacle right now.

Too bad they have to pay for their own health insurance and have no pension plan or 401k match. 200k aint shit when you adjust for that. My bank = 5% 401k match. 3% pension. Full medical. And a 5% discount on the company stock. Thats like an extra 60-70k on top of my pay.

They get to write off medical as a business expense. Also, they do have a pension plan..it's called a SEP IRA and it goes tax-deferred until age 70. As a business owner, you can stash away $56k a year tax free.

On top of that, business owners can write off all kind of expenses including travel and entertainment.

100k is probably the ballpark for most. They temp a lot. Half the solos out there do project work for larger firms and its not just doc review.

I'm guessing the rate of non-payment of bills goes up significantly to the extent that the solo does work for consumer clients instead of institutional clients. Plus, you have tobacco-smelling men in overalls in your office bitching about their problems.
