Had a couple of bad years with my studio when self-employed. Had similar tax payments to make, and always enjoyed the fact that even a bad year self employed put more money in my pocket than being employed. In some ways there's a sweet spot that means your earnings are pitiful but every single penny goes your way and you actually have more money than you have, and temporarily experience the ability to swoop back and forth through time on a whim. A friend of mine went temporarily invisible after paying the tax man 4p. Someone I was at school with learned to fly after grossing only £48 for a whole financial year.
People who spend their life in employment never realise this sort of stuff is possible.
