[QUOTE="Malika, post: 465547, member: 11227"] I am a free-lance translator (French to English) who works at home. The advantages are that my time is completely my own - I can obviously work whenever I want as long as I meet the deadline - and that I am free to fit it in with anything that arises. I also enjoy it and it exploits my field of competence, as it were. The disadvantages are that it is isolated, very intense and concentrated and (last but not least) not fantastically paid. Oh - and you neeed to speak another language, of course... :) I also occasionally work as an editor and that is something you might like to explore if you like language and have meticulous attention to detail. You will never earn an enormous wage but you can build up a reputation if you do good work and earn a liveable income. In the UK there are short proof-reading courses you can do and I am sure they also exist in the States. [/QUOTE]
