A fair price for freedom?

83% of respondents to our survey would rather freelance than take a regular job, even though 59% feel anxiety when they think about their future as freelancers. Even though most freelancers seem to love the lifestyle, they have to face some obstacles that regular employees don't, like:

  • Buying their own health insurance
  • Paying more taxes than regular employees
  • Losing out on the government safety net, which includes unemployment insurance and worker's comp.
