I wanted to chime in here and say I found some of the advice useful.

I'm in a construction/custom fabrication related job and I've been thinking in general about the future of my career. I could move to another company, but there is also the chance that there may come a time when freelancing is actually a good option.

Is there a thread anywhere about how to prepare into going freelance? IDK if I should clog up this thread with my unrelated questions, but I'd like get an idea of what I haven't thought of yet.

I�d be interested in this as well. I started my own business after moonlighting/freelancing at my old job and, not having a business background, am trying to get a better handle on how I should be doing things.

My advice is get Quickbooks or similar, and this book. Your local library has it and it will help make you ask a lot of those questions you don�t know you should be asking.
