You are right freelancing is hard and it requires to broaden your skills beyond the tech world... It's a risk. Also the extra money one can get is the retribution for the risk. The real benefit, IMHO, is the flexibility you can have. It's easier to negociate to work 4 days a week, when you are both parties 😅

Besides that, everything you said are great and can be helpful. Just be careful, it might hurt you or your family in the long run. Take care of yourself, you are more important than you think and your mental health should be #1.
