“Sometimes you have a little too much work to do on your own. Or you don’t have the expertise to do it yourself. Or you just want to scale your business. So you decide to hire a freelancer — and that’s when you run into trouble…”
“Michael Brooks launched goLance in 2015 with the objective of offering lower fees for freelancers, giving people the freedom to work from home.”
“You don’t need a fancy college degree to make great money if you happen to have tech skills. If you can code, provide help with websites or test software, you may be able to earn a six-figure income. Experience and references are helpful, but no degree is required. Even if you don’t have the relevant skills today, if you’re willing to learn tech, you could earn plenty.”
“If you think the foundation of cryptocurrency began in 2008 with the Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto (that’s the alias he uses and no one really knows who he is), you’re mistaken.”
