Things to do today

We all have our favorite Freelance blogs which consistently produce quality, insightful content. However in an alternate reality what if an entirely different set of freelancing blogs existed. The kind that broke all the rules….

With tongue firmly in cheek, I present a humorous look at the top 10 blogs every freelancer would like to exist:

  • 1. Badclients.com


We all know and love Clients From Hell but what if there was a site that named and shamed clients that; don’t pay, treat us like slaves, endlessly micro-manage and generally behave very badly. Soon only the fabulous, deep pocketed, fantastic to work with clients would be left!

  • 2. productiveinpyjamas.com


Do you actually wear real grown-up clothes when sitting in front of your computer? Well, Productive In Pyjamas will change that, with tips on how to use that ‘just got out of bed’ look to become a productive freelancing super machine.

  • 3. taxfreefreelancing.com


Let’s face it seeing our hard earned money go into the Governments pockets each year…sucks. Wouldn’t it be awesome if we actually got to keep all of what we earned without going to jail? Hell yes! That’s where Tax Free Freelancing comes in.

  • 4. freehealthcare.com


Fed up of paying for extortionate health insurance policies and high priced over the counter medication….I thought so. Well fret no more because Free Health Care will provide you with a lifetime supply of cash and insurance forms to pay for any medical bills that you may incur.

  • 5. byebyeadmin.com


Say goodbye forever to every freelancers pet hates; accounting, invoicing, scheduling, filing and organising. Bye Bye Admin shows you how to forego all those painstaking tasks and instead enjoy seeing your office slowly being surrounded by paper, files and receipts!

  • 6. paidvacations.com


Unlike most of the 9-5 population our vacations to {insert destination here} are unpaid. So when we leave the office we stop making money. Paid Vacations puts an end to this and shows you how to keep the {insert currency here} rolling in while you’re sunning yourself in Bali.

  • 7. junkfooddiet.com


Junk Food Diet shows every freelancer how to cut back on those nasty things like fruit and vegetables and instead give our bodies much needed fatty energy boosts. By combining pot noodles with a mixture of crisps and chocolate to keep us both happy and contented in front of our computer for 12 hours a day.

  • 8. pleasepay.me


So you’ve just finished this huge project, the client is overjoyed, you bill him feeling all warm inside waiting for the paycheck when said client does a runner and refuses to pay. What do you do? Well Please Pay Me has all the answers so never again will you be stiffed out of your cash. Suggested by@duncanmacgregor.

  • 9. readingclientsminds.com


“Just do whatever you think”….”It needs more pop”….”I’ll know it when I see it”. Heard those before? Sure you have, you’re a freelancer! Reading Clients Minds shows you exactly how to take these vague phrases and workout exactly what your client means, plus you even get a free Crystal Ball! Suggested by@gariphic.

  • 10. drinkcoffeemakemoney.com


To be a freelancer one of the criteria you must meet is a love of coffee. A true freelancer likes nothing more than sitting back in their Aero chair with a large cappuccino. Drink Coffee Make Money provides in-depth tutorials on how to keep both the coffee and cash flowing in. Suggested by @PixellicaDesign.

So that was my cheeky, highly sarcastic look at what type of freelancing blogs we could have in another reality. Most of these domains are available so in the unlikely event you actually buy one, please do let me know!

Dacă – Rudyard Kipling

Dacă eşti calm, cînd toţi se pierd cu firea
În jurul tău, şi spun că-i vina ta;
De crezi în tine, chiar cînd Omenirea
Nu crede, dar îi crezi şi ei cumva;
De ştii s-aştepţi, dar fără tevatură;
De nu dezminţi minciuni minţind, ci drept;
De nu răspunzi la ură tot cu ură
Şi nici prea bun nu pari, nici prea-nţelept;

Dacă visezi – dar nu-ţi faci visul astru;
De poţi să speri – dar nu-ţi faci jindulţel;
De-ntîmpini şi Triumful şi Dezastrul
Mereu senin şi în acelaşi fel;
Dacă suporţi să-ţi vezi vorba sucită
De şarlatan, ce-ţi spurcă al tău rost;
De poţi ca munca vieţii, năruită,
S-o faci de la-nceput precum a fost;

Dacă-ndrăzneşti agonisita-ţi toată
S-o pui, făr’a clipi, pe-un singur zar
Şi, dac-o pierzi, să-ncepi ca prima dată
Făr-să te plîngi cu un oftat măcar;
De ştii, cu nerv, cu inimă, cu vînă,
Drept să rămîi, cînd ele june nu-s,
Şi stai tot dîrz, cînd nu mai e stăpînă
Decît Voinţa ce le ţine sus;

Dacă-ntre Regi ţi-e firea neschimbată
Ca şi-n Mulţime – nu străin de ea;
Amic sau nu, de nu pot să te-abată;
De toţi de-ţi pasă, dar de nimeni prea;
Dacă ţi-e dat, prin clipa zdrobitoare,
Să treci şi s-o întreci, mereu bonom,
atunci: a ta e Lumea asta mare
şi, mai presus, vei fi un OM, copilul meu!

Bun venit!
