Quote from Saundra D. Cintron on February 26, 2021, 2:31 pmI’m in the USA and I’ve done both. You’re not from or in the USA so I would recommend you start with a job so you can learn how things work. Freelancing is very difficult here because of the cost of living. You would basically be starting your own freelance business completely fresh which is difficult if you don’t know the ropes. Like me going to a foreign country to start a business… high chance of failing just because I didn’t know what I was getting into. I would say look at what you want to do and build yourself a path to get there - including learning what you don’t yet know.

Quote from Dimphina Beld on February 26, 2021, 2:42 pmWell if I was from USA, I would prefer freelancing. The reason being that I have vast knowledge about freelancing. Thats why i would have more chances of success, but after having some money I would have certainly started a business.
