One of the major drawbacks of becoming a freelance translator is that we don't have a dependable income. Most of us rely on projects from middleman, that is outsourcers and translation agencies who might have difficulty finding projects for themselves. And even if they award a regular project to us, who can guarantee we can always do the job? What if we get sick?
Other drawback of becoming a freelance translator is that we rely too much on ourselves. We are the boss as well as the employee. We do all the works (accounting, administration, sales, marketing, everything). The drawback of playing solo is that if we get sick, we're screwed - we can't work.
The solution is we need more income, not more jobs or more clients! We don't want to increase our workloads and work hours and we don't want to work from dawn until midnight just to make a decent income.
That's why every freelance translator should get a side job that can supplement their income especially during low-demand period. An ideal sideline income for freelance translator is something that can be done conveniently while translating, does not require additional resources/investment, and does not require additional skills.
