To share or not to share (your freelance income).
In this episode, Frankie Tortora and Steve Folland have a chat in response to a question from Detective Piggybank aka ANONYMOUS. They say:
“Hi Frankie and Steve. My question is this:
I often see freelancers and creators sharing what they make money wise. I must admit I can’t help but read, listen or watch this stuff. I find myself wondering if I should do this?
But then I worry… what if people think it’s just showing off. Is it?
What if people start attacking me for when I do well?
What if people think I suck when I don’t do so well?
I feel like people might judge me for NOT posting what I earn.
Am I just being too British about it — how dare we talk about money?
Penny for your thoughts? So long as you tell everyone online where you got that penny from.
Detective Piggybank”
Take note dear listener! We might swear a bit. This one’s for the parents. To be enjoyed at your desk or once the kiddos are in bed.
What would your advice be?
