4. How can governments help small businesses?
I’m not too sure about that, but I think that governments should try to minimize charges and
taxes for the first few years after the company opens. I think they can tax them only once the small
businesses are stable and actually turning a profit. In addition, the government could loan money
to young entrepreneurs (=people who start their own businesses) who have a clear plan for the
future.
5. Compare the benefits of running your own business and working in a company.
Okay, if you work for a company, you will have a fixed schedule and a fixed salary, which is
comfortable and safe
．
In addition, you are not investing any of your money, so you don't need to
worry or stress about tomorrow. On top of this, you could benefit from the company's training, and
learn a lot from a personal point of view. On the other hand, if you work for yourself, you might
have more freedom, in terms of time and scheduling. You don't need to obey anyone else; you
make your own decisions, and that's nice. Usually, if you work for yourself, you know why you
are working, and you can expect to make more money if you are successful. The more you work,
the more you make. It is very motivating and rewarding. If you set up your own company, you
will definitely experience a sense of achievement.
6. Are there any disadvantages to running your own business?
Yes, of course. First of all, it's risky, because you must invest quite a lot of money to start
with. In addition, although many people think you will have more free time, I believe that you will
have to work harder because you will care more about what you're doing, and you will be eager to
make a profit. You will probably be stressed too at first, especially if business takes time to pick
up (=to be successful)
．
And you will also need to make all the important decisions, so you might

be under a great deal of pressure.
