It’s, of course, not actually true, but I’ve really only had one W-2 9-5 job in my life and have always been an entrepreneur and freelancer at heart. There are a lot of perks that come with freelancing like the ability to make unlimited money and of course working in your pj’s and grabbing snacks whenever you want. But, there are downsides to freelancing and being an entrepreneur. It’s often hard to get paid after you do your job. Most companies like to really drag out the payment schedule and that can leave you really feeling in pinch.
