Since 2008, my guaranteed week-to-week income has declined by about 30%. The main difference is that I went from having a drone job working 40 hours per week to being functionally self-employed, setting my own hours, picking my clients and generally having a more relaxed approach to things. I was out of work for one year and accumulated a good amount of debt during that time, but am now on the mend. In essence, I've traded a higher income and security for the freedom to pursue my own path. I also have health insurance now.
In many ways - and in my own eyes - I am better off.
