The only thing harder than earning a living as a freelancer is getting far enough ahead to build yourself a cushion against low-revenue stretches. In fact, I have no idea how I managed to build one, but I did, and I needed it in 2010.The lesson for me wasn’t about building a cushion; the lesson was about how lousy it feels to use the cushion, especially for ungratifying purposes like a paycheck. Booooo-ring. No iPad this year.”
