I somewhat agree with you but skillset does not suffer in freelancing but what suffers most is dealing with people for money. Its called recovery and it is one of the hardest things in the world. As an intellectual, i think this recovery is a wasting process for anyones intellect. People are just so stubborn on paying for the work you have done as a freelancer.

Yeah, I agree with you.

My points were based on the fact that I thought my skillset took a battering, however, I know many freelancers who continue to flourish in strength whilst working for themselves... It just wasn't right for me :)

It wasn't right for me too!... I am beginning to find more happiness in the job culture. I guess. We need peace and we deserve it.

Yes :) As I have gotten older, I have learnt that life is less about impressing people and doing what makes us happy as individuals. If I want to work a career because that's what makes me happy then I don't really care if others consider that an easy way out :) It works for me
