Everybody who works at home have 2 options: a) work from home b) rent office space in office building (reasons for that - better productivity, better life at home quality when home is just for relaxing and so on) and do the same thing there. That also gives you better options for meeting clients (if you need to) and so on and so on. We are discussing about doing the SAME thing at home VS doing the same thing at rented office. Not self employment VS working under a boss... |

It's a bidet, it's for washing like you said, but not for your feet.
![]() Regarding the Sochi comment, the main difference is that these actually function as intended. :D

I have "The Squealer" on "ignore". But reading what you quoted him saying made me laugh.
There is no "one size fits all" for a business. I would say that "yes", if you have 4 or 5 employees working for you, it's best to have an office. "No", if you are working by yourself. We used to have employees. Had an office. It was great. Now, I do everything myself. I have a very, very nice office set up right here in my backyard by the pool and jacuzzi. As for "The Squealer", I'd love to know what it is he does in this business and maybe some pics of himself with his employees at HIS office. Bill Gates worked out of his garage when he started Microsoft. And when he got bigger and NEEDED employees. He got an office. I'm pretty damn successful, and I don't see the need to spend a few grand a month on an office space for no reason when I have this giant building in my backyard by the pool about a hundred steps from my house. Folks like "The Squealer" need to realize this ain't 1960 anymore. You can make millions of dollars from any location with the internet. And if you are a "one man show" like I am...I'm way over-doing it with my office by my pool now. |

I totally get that a large company with 300 employees would need at least one central office and people on site interacting dynamically. But that kind of business structure doesn't describe more than a small fraction of the people posting in this thread.

I have worked from an office an worked from home.
I currently wok from home and hate it. Fucking family life gets in the way, people call round when the fuck they feel like it and I can't get nothing done. It's been like this for ages. I used to work from an office. Go in when I liked, leave when I liked, toss off when I liked. I don't know why I thought home would be preferable. For the few hundred bucks a month it costs for an office I would suggest taking that route providing you are comminted to your business. |

Of course some people do not have this issue as we can see from some replies. Takes very tough discipline to do that and many people can't. I have many friends who are webmasters, designers, affiliates and who work on their own. And every one of them increased their earnings when they decided to work from rebted office space. Simple example. Let's say you earn $4000 from home. Even if you increase your productivity by 15% that extra $600 easily covers office rent and you are still in the "profit". And on top of that you have your home only as relaxation space, that adds to the well being of a person as well. |

First of all...finding a nice office space for $600 a month? Maybe in the backwoods somewhere. Second...then you have to have electricity and water service for your office. Then you have to pay AGAIN (because you should already have the fastest, most expensive ISP hooked up to your home connection) for internet service. That's money being wasted on redundancy. I get what you're saying that most folks just aren't disciplined to go to "work". (though for people like me...I can't WAIT to go to work everyday, I love it) But to say it's only gonna be around $600 a month just isn't so. Also when you first move in to that office...you're going to have to spend days just getting it all set up right. I don't think that most self-employed succesful people who do not have a bunch of employees really have any trouble with self-discipline and getting things done. Most of them are work-a-holic A-type personalities. Employees on the other hand...they absolutely need that. |

Also I forgot to add one thing:
When you have an office, you are now visible to the authorities in your town. All it takes is a little bit of word of mouth before the nature or your business becomes known to the wrong religious nutcase housewife. And THEN you find yourself with a whole new headache. |

I am talking about one man operations (webmaster, designer, affiliate etc) where you would need 10-12 square meter office cabinet. I am not talking about "something nice", I only imagine what do you have in mind there. ![]() BUT - these numbers were just random, to show a point that extra income would cover office rent. So let's not get into the numbers as they were just to illustrate the point and were actually random. As for "not having trouble with discipline", trust me, ABSOLUTE MAJORITY of them do. At the very least 80%, in reality 90%+. Everybody I know who moved to office immediately started being way more productive and 15% extra is just very small number, many of them did twice as much as they used to do from home. |

If you are:
1. In the USA & outside Cali & maybe NV 2. Have kids under 16 3. Work from home You're nuts. All it takes is for one neighbor, ex-wife, school teacher etc to contact DSS and you are in for a world of hurt. |

I disgree. I think you need to change your mindset.
When I worked in an office I used to get dressed for 'work' despite me being the only person there. I used to wear my best shoes, my shirt and proper trousers. After I started working from home I quickly started to start work later, get dressed slower. Wear slacker clothes and finish earlier. |

I work for a company that is based out of Europe, but has a huge affiliate base here in the US. Our office in the UK can't help much because by the time people in California are coming on line, people in the UK are going offline and going home. We have three offices in Europe, yet we still have other people in Germany, Italy, Japan, and of course the US. We plan on moving into South America shortly, and we will be sure to hire someone local there too - It just makes sense. Working from home is much more productive too. I start work earlier, take a shorter lunches, less breaks, have no co-workers to bother me, and can work later. If three is an emergency or a big project, I don't have to "drive" back to the office... Weekends too - I can work weekends without leaving home. It's perfect.

I'm not getting it, LOL? You just proved my point perfectly: You have to skim the debris and dead animals out of your non-screened pool every god damn day. I too remember doing this daily as a teenager as part of my household chores when my family had a backyard pool in NY state also surrounded by trees. Guess how many times I have skimmed my screened pool in Florida? ZERO point ZERO times.

It's quite good to work from home, but I think it's better if you are in the office with your colleagues because If you need help asap thank you can just walk to the person who you need.

I have worked from home for 17 years now, If a project warranted it I would rent office space, but my business does not require it.

To each his own, but you do realize that the screen around the pool is just a light weight mesh 25 feet over the surface of the water which lets the sunlight, the air, the weather and temperature through, just not leaves and mosquitoes? It's not a hermetically sealed enclosed glass panel that shuts out the outdoor environment!

Arguments that people need an office to be productive are b.s. Frank Schilling, the most successful domainer, runs a business from home. Within 4 years after starting, he had a $100 million buyout offer for his company.
In an interview with DNJournal, Frank said "The most important dollar I ever made - the one that made me shout for joy and feel rich - was the dollar it took to allow me to work from home and to stop going to an office. Everything since, everything, has been anticlimactic for me."

I would have problems going back to an office. It's not getting up and dressed and being on time, I'm fine with that... It's people stopping by desk to bother me about stupid shit I don't care about. You got a new puppy? Well isn't that special? Post it on Facebook so I can ignore it. I don't want to have a twenty minute discussion about your fucking dog when I am knee deep in HTML.

The weird thing to me is reading some people saying that they are more productive at the office than a home-office. When we had our office...we fucked around all damn day. lol Telling jokes, drinking, going to Hooters for lunch, finding funny pictures and vids online to pass around. I remember that around 6 p.m. everybody would be gone and I'd settle down at the office and actually get all the shit done that I needed to because nobody was bothering me. lol Here at my home office...I work uninterrupted. No music, no television. Just me and my giant freakish brain. ![]() |
