Freelance for numbskulls

Want a job like? Set your own time of work, long-term obligation to superiors, and work anywhere you may roam? Well, undoubtedly freelancing is for you.

Sir Walter Scott (1771–1832) first coined the term "freelance" in his well known romance "Ivanhoe" which in that time refers to "medieval mercenary warriors". But now, for what ever damn reason, it has become a term used for contractors who offer services with no long term obligation with employer. There are bunch of freelancer around the world today, and most work through the internet.

This field becomes a good source of extra income, especially if you have exceptional skills, talents and an overflowing self-motivation. Freelancing is quite risky in a way, but very rewarding and self realizing in another. In both ways, it's a great way of learning and growing as a professional with out the hassles of being a regular employee.

Many companies or other business individuals nowadays outsource their works to other contractors or freelancers and mostly, they do it online. These are some jobs that are usually outsourced.
