If you have the ability to become a freelancer I strongly urge you to to this.  Working for someone in the traditional sense has over the last few years become a losing proposition. You get a salary and a few benefits but other than that not much. You might feel a sense of security but in the new America there is no such thing as we have seen in the past few years. The only security that the any worker will have is the security that he/she generates for themselves and the most likely means working for themselves. I would suggest that you look at the following website.  www.theincompetencefactor.com

After the financial fiasco that has been haunting America for the last several years is over I believe that  many Americans will be in a much different position as far as jobs are concerned.  I’m not sure the jobs lost bewtween  2008 and 200? will ever return.  We have lost much of our manufacturing in the US and I don’t expect that to return very quickly.  And in many fo the service jobs I believe that they have contracted and may stay that way for some time.  I also believe that the country will be brought out of its financial doldrums by small business. Big corporate business has become a terrible mess in our country.  They along with Wall Street and Big government have managed to put this country on the verge of collapse.  Huge wasteful government spending, huge nonproductive taxes, an incompetent government and big business that cares more about profit than about a country and its citizens. This American model isn’t working anymore and people have got to look at other models for work and lifestyle.

I realized several years ago that I was living a stressed out life with a tremendous amount of overhead and lots of employees problems. i was making money but after paying all the expense including rent, salaries, benefits, taxes and on and I wasn’t making  enough to make this lifestyle worthwhile. I knew that there had to be a better way. A way whereby I could make a descent living, enjoy my my work, travel. enjoy good food and drink and absolutely dump much of the stress I have lived with most of my life.  When I decided to dump my previous life therwere several things that I would look for in my new lifestyle. That list is to follow in another post.
