Because it supplements my income and gives me something to do that the wife doesn't understand or have any interest in, so she can't go around complaining about it to her friends now can she...
I'm just doing this for fun - it is very useful experience for me and I hope to start my own company in the future.
Work Time is very flexible. If I have time, I can work. It helps to pay my internet bill and mobile bill and few other small bills.
I like to know that I can work from any place in the world, at my own pace and time, without a boss hanging over my shoulder. The flexible hours enable me to spend more time with the kids.
I don't do it mainly for the money aspect, I look at it more as a hobby and something that I enjoy doing. To me anyway.
I treat Internet as Online Business opportunity which does not have much risks compared to offline business wherein you have to work under a boss. I want to be my own boss.
All others are getting so huge income from web so why can't I? Maybe one old metaphor suits here well; if all barbers are whores that doesn't mean all whores are barbers
Because the unemployeement market sucks. I can control my hours and work as little or as much as I want. I can work at 2 in the morning if i feel like making more money and no ones going to stop me.
I chose to work online for the reason that here I am forced to put any commitment. I own my liberty. I can work, when I feel like doing it. It makes me feel free.
3 big reasons: 1) Time freedom (make passive earnings after work is done up front). 2) Supplemental income (still got a day job, but not forever!). 3) Location independence (work from anywhere in the world).
