Commented on the post after one day of silence on my part:
21 comments so far but not one about having a nice job they are proud of. So even this 22nd comment has a purpose. Telling you like minded people that it can happen, having a nice job that pays the rent, feeds the kids and you still have time to be with those kids.

For more that ten years I have been my own boss and off course loved it, but the money factor killed many of my playfulness. Why? Because I’m a creative people person and not a business suite. The value of making is not the money I earn with it. It’s the added value I bring to the other person by my creativity.
I found out this can be true (even more true) within a regular job.
All the business (hate it) is done by my boss and I just do what I’m good at. Adding more productive hours and finding my knowledge and creative thinking touching more people.
You can only do so much as a one mans army.

Not that I’m saying I will never be “free” again, heck I still have my foundation for the remaining two days in the week.

nb. This is a perfect example of how a videopost could / should work from the interaction point of view. GO RUPERT!!!
