You can always get a 3rd oarty to handle your
financials.
Liability Insurance for about $2,000,000.00 - last
time I looked was only like $1500.00 per year.
You should probably look into Errors and Omissions as
well.
-------------
Even contracting for mom and pop shops in the south
doing the lowest levels of work bills about $125.00 -
$150.00 or so even in Florida. I guess one could do
worse.
