About Finance For Myself

Finance For Myself is a free set of tools and guides built for US freelancers and 1099 contractors.

No paywalls, no email gates — just the information you need to handle your freelance finances.

What You'll Find Here

Who This Is For

This site is for US-based freelancers, 1099 independent contractors, and solopreneurs — especially people transitioning from a W-2 job to self-employment for the first time. If you're trying to figure out quarterly taxes, understand your 1099 forms, or calculate what to set aside, you're in the right place.

This site is not designed for businesses with employees or for international users. All calculators and guides are based on US federal tax rules and IRS guidelines.

A Note on Accuracy

The calculators and guides on Finance For Myself are based on 2025 IRS rules and federal tax brackets. They're designed to give you a solid estimate and a clear understanding of how freelance taxes work. That said, this site is not a substitute for professional tax advice. Everyone's situation is different — if you have a complex tax situation, work with a CPA or tax professional who can look at your specific numbers.
