1 & 2 seem like top reasons NOT to freelance -- stress & worrying about where your money is going to come from. But I guess it depends on how much money you'd like and how many clients you're getting.
My main gripe about freelancing is that it seems like the only reliable way to get a livable wage (or at least a wage on par with full-time devs) is by convincing some sort of startup or other tech company to hire you for a few months. Meaning that it's very difficult to multiple revenue streams that pay out similarly, and you end up being more or less a full-time dev who happens to change jobs more often than a longer term hire. This is just my experience though, I'm curious to see if others have similar impressions.
