Actually, freelancing is not really for making money. In fact, you don't even need to be stressing yourself trying to make money as a starter. What you need is just acquiring the necessary skills that you will need in making success in freelancing. You need to learn more about how to compete favorably with other freelancers. You are not the only one that is good. Ensure you are good at convincing clients. When you can do this freely, it will pay you off.
