Yeah - your happiness quotient definitely goes up in some ways,
   once you get it going, because you can control your time.
   Drawbacks are mostly "not knowing".** When you have a job, you
   know what your money is going to be week-to-week, month to
   month.* You have set hours, you do what you have to do, then
   you're free to go home. A job is the same as going to school.*
   Just replace teachers with bosses.* Same. What I love about
   doing your own business is that there's no limits.* If you want
   to start a business while going to school right now, you *can*.*
   Age is not a limitation.* [maybe you can't get a bank
   acct/legally sign papers, which is *stupid to me* - but you
   _can_ do everything else.* Just use cash] if you want to start a
   business when you're working a steady job, you *can*.* [unless
   you're stealing work from your job, which is a _bad idea_] So,
   all in all, it's pretty cool :)
