Is freelancing a meme? Many people recommend it for loners and NEETs as a way to get a work without too much difficulty.

But as far I've seen it's pretty much a meme, at least for the entry level jobs: There's a fuckton of Filipinos and thridworlders doing the data entry jobs and everything entry level, employers for those jobs are in a 24/7 power trip since they get tens or hundreds of applicants for every little task and other skilled fields like translation are pretty difficult to get in unless you're willing to work for bread crumbs for months.

Or maybe is it me I'm not looking hard enough. Thoughts?
