Any Disadvantages?

There are, like anything else and anywhere else, disadvantages to to an issue that may seem all-glorious and all wonderful on the surface.

Working at home is not any different, therefore you should really seriously consider the disadvantages that accompany working from home and all that is involved with the lifestyle.

First, consider whether or not you are really ready for the work at home lifestyle that you are considering. Without all of the romance, the lofty ideas and the pluses that can be misconstrued as generalities, let’s look at some very real considerations that you should focus on before you get started in this.

Patience Do you have the patience and wherewithal that it will take for you to make a go of your business or work at home job until it is self-sustaining?

Do you have the funds and support that you need in order to wait until your income is enough to support you and your family?

Without regards to the perks, consider the time that it will take for you to ramp up your business to create a decent income.

Depending on the type of business that your pursue or the type of company that you go to work for, you may in for a lengthy and/or involved process to get things to where they need to be in order for you to see some progress in that area.

How much of an income do you need to generate in order to live? Sit down and accurately figure out what you need to make on a weekly and/or monthly business before you are ready to embark on
a new business idea or venture.

Be realistic in your expectation level and with your expenses. Are you ready to withstand the lean times that will come while you are working towards building that income?

Having a steady income with a traditional job is a definite level of comfort for some individuals. It can be quite unnerving to think that you are responsible for your income, whether you’re good at what you do or not. The stability of a guaranteed paycheck from a regular job can quickly become a preference over making the lifestyle of a work at home entrepreneur.

Work From Home

Benefits

Benefits are a very important consideration for the work at home employee. Oftentimes, they have a family to support and need the benefits for them in order to make their lives easier.

You must consider the benefits, or rather the lack of benefits that a work at home individual is without while he or she builds up their income. Benefits can include health and life insurance,
dental insurance, paid sick leave and even paid maternity leave.

You should seriously think about NOT having access to these benefits as a contract worker and find out how you can support your family in the absence of them. Many companies hire freelancers or contractors as a way to avoid paying benefits to their workers. A plus for them, but a minus for you.

Although this is the way they save money, you must consider you and your family’s health and well being and the security of having medical and dental benefits that they will need while you are pursuing your dream of working for yourself. Can they do without the benefits?

Time

Time is another disadvantage that goes along with the aforementioned schedule and flexibility. One of the drawbacks to consider to having such flexible time, is, having such flexible time.

When you pursue the lifestyle of the work at home person, you also have to consider the amount of time that you will put in and the toll that it takes on the body.

Yes, there is flexibility, but there are also deadlines. And, if there are deadlines to meet with the work at home business, they must be met. Whether that is in the middle of the night, with or without a sick child and other responsibilities looming over you to get done, it is up to you to make it all happen.

Time is one of the few commodities that we don’t have control over. We all have the same amount of time given to us day in and day out. It’s up to us to maximize that time to make everything happen within that time that needs to.

Is the work at home lifestyle for everyone? No, it isn’t. But, you should consider the advantages and disadvantage and your own lifestyle before deciding that it is (or is not) something that you would like to pursue.

Of course, it IS a wonderful way to make a living. And, with so many creative, wonderful ways to do it, it’s hard not being excited about how everyone can enjoy this lifestyle as well.
