(20,564 posts)a young person is shooting themselves in the foot to be a free lancer/self employed, you are condemning yourself to a lifetime of below minimum wage and no health care benefits
things were different when i first started out but i regret every day i listened to the crap about being an entrepreneur and a free lancer, i have destroyed my life, there is no money out there to get
if you can get a job, grab it, if the job has benefits, never let it go
if you're one of the unemployable (like me) i don't know what to say, we are screwed if we are unwilling to have sex with creeps for money and i am VERY unwilling to do that (and too old now to do that anyway)
if i wanted to have sex for money i could have slept w. my harasser back in the day and i would literally have millions more in income by now
it makes me sick
if you are a woman, you are of value for ONE thing and it is not for stringing beads, which some kid in a Chinese village can do (and any other craft too) for $2 a day
