Want to elaborate? Do you mean to imply doing "programming jobs" or something? Sounds like freelancing where you have to put at least 80% of your energy into marketing, 10% into SEO, and the remaining 10% to crapping out some horrible fullstack webshit for a client that is over-exploiting your labor with a bare minimum wage.
Oh, and compete with the million other fools doing the same thing. End of rant.
