“Then again, … the information economy embraced millions of skilled, culturally literate, freelance oddballs.”

The quote is from a sad and scary New Yorker story that hit home with me.  Like many freelancers, I walk carefully on the sidewalk of The Road to Desperate Circumstances.

Like Ray Kachel, the freelancer in the story, will I end up under a bridge some day with just a duffel and a daypack?
