    I think I wasn't clear when I started the post.
    But when I meant Freelance here, I meant 'contracting' really. Which in London is referred as Freelancing in the industry.

    So not talking about doing a website for your local baker working 16hs a day. But working on a Freelance basis for big clients or on a Freelance basis on-site at an agency. 9-5 or smthg like that.

    More and more I hear from friends of mine that were CD's or AD's at big agencies, that freelancing is the way to go.

    But there seems to be some pros and cons. I think before the Internet this was simply not possible. But now we are getting to the point where it doesn't make much sense for top creative people to be full time in Advertising.
