What is the best retirement plan for the self-employed?

As a self-employed person (start-upper, freelancer, etc.) you are not subject to compulsory insurance. You can, but do not have to pay into the statutory pension insurance. However, there are some private alternatives with which you can make good provisions for your old age – usually with better returns than in the State Pension Scheme.
There are many different products on the market, with different costs and potential returns. Therefore, you should compare them carefully before taking out a policy.
