Fast forward to present day and I look back on all my failures as stepping stones to where I am today. I'm not a naive webmaster and online marketer and I try to help others whenever I can because I wish I had someone like me to help me out along the way so I didn't make those dumb little mistakes

it had its ups and downs, but I do not regret having started out as a freelance writer. No doubt that earning money was the prime intention for starting out. But I also wanted something that allowed me to avoid traveling to and from work which was proving to be time consuming and expensive, not to mention the boss I had! So apart from money there was also the need to find something more flexible and convenient.
Very interesting post, which made me think to the beginning of my freelancing career :) it had its ups and downs, but I do not regret having started out as a freelance writer. No doubt that earning money was the prime intention for starting out. But I also wanted something that allowed me to avoid traveling to and from work which was proving to be time consuming and expensive, not to mention the boss I had! So apart from money there was also the need to find something more flexible and convenient.

I've shared my story previously so I won't go into any details about it. More than that I was playing Counterstrike several years ago. And I was the in-game leader. Fast forward just a few years from when I started to play and I actually sold tactics to other in-game leaders. So they basically paid me money to give them ideas on how they should play the game. - That was my very first "freelancing income". Although I didn't even realize it at that time.
Fast forward a few more years and I started to do business on multiple marketplaces, and eventually on seocheckout. I reached the highest user level on 2 out of 3 marketplaces (basically Fiverr clones) I was working on and when I found seocheckout I decided to commit myself "for real". Fast forward a few months and I reached the highest user level here too.
I love freelancing but, to be completely honest, I had more success a year ago, then what I have nowadays.. And nowadays, I'm on the edge of quitting actually. Because I can't really keep working during these circumstances. - I need something sustainable. I need stability. I need something "real" to keep up with my living expenses, rent etc.. And unfortunately, my freelancing career isn't what it used to be. I agree with you Razzy. I've shared my story previously so I won't go into any details about it.
