A long time for a 24 year old, yes.

  How long did you contract for before you quit and decided it was somehow easier to found your own company?
  • etchalon 14y ago
    On and off for the better part of a decade. And let me be clear, "founding my own company" wasn't "easier". It was infinitely harder, though ultimately more rewarding for me.

      I'm contracting specifically so that I can allocate time flexibly in order to found my own company. You're essentially scorning me for taking my own path towards what you did. Baffling hypocrisy.

        I'm not scorning you, whatsoever. I was just discussing why I came to the conclusion that being a contractor makes one no more or less "free" than being salaried, in practical terms anyway.
