Sole proprietorships are one of the easiest–but also one of the riskiest–types of businesses to start. The reason for this is simple: all responsibilities of a sole proprietorship rely entirely on the owner. There are absolutely no limitations of liability in place, such as those that protect corporations. To that end, although all the profits are used as the sole owner sees fit, the sole proprietor is also 100 percent responsible for all of the debts.The simplicity of starting a sole proprietorship is also one of its primary downfalls. In many cases, those who start such companies have little to no experience in the business world, leading to an increased possibility for financial trouble. Even worse, when such problems do arise, many owners simply turn to bankruptcy in hopes of either saving their companies or some of their assets. In truth, bankruptcy is not the only solution, and in many cases is far from being the better one.
