Not exactly free..but I get what you're saying.

More like discharge ;)

Just curious--I'm a network engineer as well, but what type of industry certifications do you have?

The difference is that in most jobs..you are gaining something through that grind. For every year I sit in my IT job...I get "years of experience." Will the youtube streaming be a sustainable job forever? If not, what happens when that well dries up? How do you explain the lapse in employment?

Cool, thanks! What was the requirements for the position? I've seen random postings for positions in Antarctica, and I find it intriguing.
