Why I work for someone else and am not doing it on my own......... CDSmith, I think you and I talked about this in depth one night on icq........... but I will try and explain why *I* work for someone else.

I have the skills and the ABILITY to run my own business, I have the experience NOW, because I have been working for others. There is not one job I have that hasn't strenthened my webmaster abilities or my marketing skills, or anything else for that matter.

What I do NOT have? If I do this on my own which I did for a year and a half, I did not have the $$$ to start up my own company and I needed stability and money coming in and I needed it NOW........ I did literally everything I could do when it came to building sites and I just couldn't cut it no matter what I did.......

So I found MY personal niche, I am best with webmasters. Well to do this, I had to be able to open up my own webmaster programs, blah blah blah........ you know the routine..... that takes money to do and money I don't have at hand...... raising 4 kids is VERY expensive and I don't have gobs of money just laying around to throw at the types of things that I am best suited for.........

Having said all this....... I do it so I have money coming in at ALL times, not just when I get lucky enough to make something turn over for me........ I still work on my own side projects and haven't given those up. I hope to eventually stand on my own feet, but for now I just don't have that option.

Then you filter in the fact that handling someone elses money makes me a damn nervous wreck....... not that I don't trust myself, I just get very nervous when it comes to all that part of the business, I have never cheated anyone, and I like to keep it that way. It is a HUGE responsibility and one I am just not ready for right now. For if you do webmaster type programs, you are then handling literally 100s of peoples money........ just the thought of that makes me crazy........

I am totally content with the job I have and who it is with, they treat me very well and they give me room to expand and spread my wings so to speak......... I am allowed to take many more chances on MY projects on the side simply because I know I have money coming in and am not so desperate.
