Scott says…

I always heard the advice of ‘having 3 months wages’ saved up before you start your freelance business. This is still the most important thing I ever did before quitting.

Have time to get your life sorted, relax and enjoy the lifestyle of freelancing before things get crazy and most importantly, to turn down work that you feel is not right for you.
