    • What do you really Love to do (on the Net)?
    • Do you sometimes notice 4 hours went by, and it seemed like ~30 minutes?
    • If you were to work hard, and be happy making only a small amount of money...
    • ...what would you want to be doing?

    People say "the secret to happiness is doing what you love."
    What do you love to do?

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I love to learn new things, and go in dozens of different directions.
    Sometimes it's hard to get much done, but I like it :)

    People are ignoring you, I hate that :p

    For me it has to be the money, I make enough to provide for my family and I like the fact that am in control of my own fate.

    Bosses would be clients :p

    I would say the schedule for work is very relaxed, you can work at any time as long as you complete it before the deadline!

    As for loving the job.. not sure :p not always!

    The freedom and variety is great.
    Lack of security is not much fun.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I really enjoy most Webmaster 'jobs', but still need to force myself to learn to write code.

    I haven't heard the horrible sound of an alarm clock in over five years..
    That alone is enough for me.
    I eat when hungry, sleep when tired and work when I feel inspired.
    Now instead of dreading waking up or wanting to sleep late. i am up before daybreak ( even when I was up late the night before ) just to see the sunrise.

    I dont make much money off the net but if it were my job, I would imagine the best things are: you are in control, you make your own hours, you do only what you WANT to do.

    Definitely freedom, but a lack of security concerns me sometimes. All up it beats a regular job by a long way

    freedom - working from home is a major plus, especially when starting a family :). It just gives me extra quality time with family and friends, rather than working to profit someone else and spending hours stuck on the motorway (freeway for non UK folk).

    Bring able to provide a resource people appreciate.
    From a technical sense, learning new things and getting things to work correctly.

    That actually really bugs me becuase, ill go ok ill just tidy up this bit of coding or X site etc and before i know it thinking they would take a small amount of time so i could focus on other jobs i've realised i've spent 4 hours + and it seemed less the 30 but still being a webmaster/entrepreneur is great fun and instead of getting a set pay check per month you've gotta go out and earn your monthly earnings :).
