I don't love the pursuit of money by any means... but I accept the fact that I won't survive w/out it.
'We've all freelanced...'...
... if so - why aren't you still doing it? (I believe Tommy asked that earlier). Why the hell would you work for someone else if you didn't have to?
I'm thinking the answer is that it's really not as easy to work for one's self as some of you appear to indicate.
Call me high and mighty all you want... that still doesn't shift the fact that a lot of you talked some serious shit earlier about ROMNEY busting up all those companies just to turn a dime for himself... which is why I began talking about 'understanding business' in the first place and the reason we're even discussing 'freelancing'...
... ah shit... sorry... didn't mean to go back on topic. ;)

- I can appreciate that I guess... and thanks for answering that. It's definitely not for everyone.PonyBoy
- It can be fun, but running a freelance design practice actually isn't a very efficient way to make monies if you think about itukit
- about it. Much better to set up a continuous source of income than work job by job.ukit
- I thought about it and I think you're wrong.mathinc
- I'm talking about business models in general, not freelance vs fulltime. Services based business model is never going to be as easy to rake in the cash, common sense.ukit
- going to be as easy a way to make money if you want to really rake in the cash. Who's able to scale up their business easier, the guy designing websites one by one or the guy selling T shirts on E Bay?ukit
- up faster, the guy meticulously designing websites one by one or the guy selling something off an automated site?ukit
- Ukit is right, we can only sell so much of our time. Also, administrative activities take a lot of the freelancers time.Josev
- Some form of passive income would be better.Josev
- Btw, I still think Romney is a sleaze bag. I've been freelancing for 17 years, that must make me more right than Pony.Josev
