5 Hidden Advantages To Becoming a Freelancer
If you stop and think about it, freelance life can be pretty sweet.
When freelancers go on about all of the benefits of working for themselves, they usually cover the same points. They talk about flexibility, setting their own hours, choosing their own projects, maintaining work-life balance, and so on.
But the advantages to a freelance career don’t stop there.
Freelancing is a cheaper, more comfortable lifestyle
Many individuals talk about how great it is to work in your pajamas or wear the same shirt two days in a row. There is something to that, although I’ve always favored the approach that your dress should reflect your work’s mind space — but that’s not the point I’m trying to make here.
Greater individual choice in wardrobe and footwear already means it’s a more comfortable lifestyle. You can also set up your workspace to suit you and not force yourself into some corporate-designed workspace that may be less healthy.
As for freelancing being cheaper, consider all the money you’d save not having to keep up on dress code requirements, upkeep, dry cleaning, and so forth. You’re saving a bit of money.
