Registering a business and taking care about taxes for your first client?

Hi there,

I am interested in how you started your nomadic lifestyle.
Everyone needs some cash to survive, therefore some client who pays.

(1) To reach that, one must learn a lot, be an expert and offer good products/services or start some projects oneself → this costs obviously a lot of time

(2) But at the same time, there is a big part of “work” to do to run things officially.
I am talking about topics like invoicing, company registration, taxes, contracts, laws, social security, … you know that you could fill en entire bachelor degree with such topics → that costs perhaps even more time than the actual work

So how did you do it?

I feel it is almost impossible to start fully legally as time, investment, and risk is just way too high if you just got your first client. I am totally overwhelmed with this topic but want to avoid to get big troubles later. However, as this topic seems so complex, I am already looking into the “easier” solution and ask myself if it is not better to just try to hide some stuff. You know where I am heading to.

What’s your valuable advice on that?

Thanks so much!
