I am self employed and love it! I cant see my changing.
Spend time understanding how to communicate science at a level that people understand. Academics sometime forget the "man in the street" isn't a scientist and using fancy words or scientific notations doesn't always work when trying to convey science to the masses. In fact, many are put off by it.
