I have been down with Pneumonia for almost a month now.
During my time off I did a lot of creative work, side jobs, selling on ebay, etsy, and writing, freelance work.
I made $424 from those side gigs in the two weeks I was off. This was a tremendous help because I was not working my 9-5, so therefore, no paycheck. Actually, I got a 53.00 paycheck for the very few hours I did work.
Anyway, what else has been up with me? I have been doing alot of research about freelancing and working at home. Considering the example above, if I just up my game a little I can quit my job and pull it off!!!
It wasn't all roses and peaches, though, I did an amazing t shirt design for the fourth of July (2 of them , actually) and I never got paid the $80 :( live and learn i guess. Now I am more careful about my screening process. These are the best sites to freelance work on:
www.guru.com
www.99designs.com
www.etsy.com (people will buy ANYTHING!)
https://www.etsy.com/listing/235022297/20-digital-chevron-patterns-multiple
www.ebay.com (again, people will buy ANYTHING!)
oh, and
www.skillcrush.com (to get all the info you need about freelancing)
I am mostly against
www.elance.com because its too advertised and too many people bidding on the same job, also those coins you have to buy. Plus people are posting phony jobs that install viruses (virii?) on your computer. It's ridic. Don't waste your time.
Anyway, I am off to my cheap Merlot from Walgreens.
Cheers!
