I've covered this in a couple of other threads, but I was making good money with a client, developing & managing their entire online marketing campaign. 1.5million + pageviews a month and having a lot of fun.

But when my wife got pregnant I realised I could keep doing that and make decent money and never be around or take a massive hit, leave Sydney and rebuild our business from scratch. Which is what we're doing.

It's stressful - it's been harder than we anticipated and this time around the work's not as easy to find as it once was. But I'd rather fight to keep doing this and be around for my unborn son than make the big bucks and never see him.
