so how do you know when to go freelance? I mean the scene for freelance motion graphics people is hot or so it seems. I have lot of people asking me to do work. I work full time and am doing the 3am posse action. I am just trying to figure out when do I quit the day job and go freelance? Does it matter that there is a recession? OR maybe I should just keep the day job and run as much as I can at night.

pixel_pimp,
i would not quit to go freelance unless you got enough of your own clients to make it. hopefully they don't just need you ones and thats it.

when i started my freelance job search here i didn't get much response but then it completely turned into my having to turn down jobs and agencies outbidding one another for me. i had no idea of my worth prior to this so i really appreciate everyone's help. now i feel i'm ripping people off. :p
