Of course it is right.. As you stated you are in Fact "Self Employed", then presumably you have no employer other than yourself to obtain insurance for you. Who else would you expect to pay for your business insurance, Your Neighbors Employer?, The contactor with whom you contracted to obtain the roofing jobs for your business?, Of course not.. A good businessman or contractor will factor in the costs of his business Liability Insurance when he bids on a job. There are many benefits that come from being Self employed, there are also many responsibilities, among these are filing your own Tax Withholdings and Insuring your business risks.
