1. Introduction
Freelancing ek freedom wali lifestyle hai – aap apne
clients choose karte ho, apna schedule banate ho aur apna boss khud hote ho.
Lekin freelancing ki sabse badi challenge ye hai ki isme koi fixed
retirement benefits nahi hote.
Jahan ek job person ke liye EPF, Gratuity aur pension hota
hai, wahan freelancer ko apna retirement self-planned karna padta hai.
Agar aaj planning shuru nahi karenge toh future me financial insecurity ho
sakti hai.
