[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 2106100, member: 5151"] I know several people that travel nationally while working (one out of a camper) and one that travels internationally. Since they can do everything online, there's no issue. And it's not just the tech industry. There are many people with secretarial career history that are turning into virtual assistants. Some work as employees for firms, while others work freelance. I'm seriously considering hiring one right now simply because employing one full time at $15-$18/hr costs more than hiring one at $50-$60/hr for the 8-10 hours of work per week that I really would need them for. Plus, it's a heck of a lot easier to let them go than an employee when business slows down to the point where they are actually costing me money instead of making me money. Same thing is possible for simple data entry or even copy-editing (although there are plenty of college students asking under $25/hr for that kind of work). [/QUOTE]
