Hello and welcome to the Business of Psychology. Today I'm talking about a subject which will probably make you feel uncomfortable. None of us really like talking about money or the fact that we want it or need it. Those things typically give us the ick, and I'm no exception to that, so expect me to sound awkward today. But the fact is that when you are starting out in any business venture, very often there is a financial gap that you need to fill and there should be a financial aspiration, something that you want to aim for, for yourself, for your family, for whatever your reasons are, for wanting a decent income, and it is nothing to be ashamed of. The fact is, earning money in your independent practice does a lot of good both for you and your personal life, but also for the world in general. But many people going into independent practice, or considering growing their practice, will be asking themselves the question, how much should I expect to earn from this business? And today I'm going to talk a bit about how we might start to answer that question.
