Freelance copywriting is a supposed business opportunity that is actually a scam of a cottage industry, promoted heavily by certain self anointed gurus and companies who claim that any English major can earn a hedge fund manager's income by going barefoot, living in an RV, and posing for selfies on a beach. Freelance copywriting is actually a way to siphon 401K and IRA savings off of early retirees looking for a second career, for pointless trainings, coaching, "intensives" and "boot camps" that are traffic jams of hungry suckers all looking for a break they'll never get.
That wanna be freelance copywriting student is a sucker! He just paid the "Institute" his last $23,000 for a membership to a bunch of useless online videos, and access to interns who will pretend that they are top copywriter mentors. He lives in a homeless shelter and tries to write product descriptions for $1 apiece.

Get the Freelance Beard mug.One of the best comics on the planet, written by Pete Abrams. It started in 1997 and has not missed a day ever since. It falls into no specific genre, but covers humor, sci-fi, horror, parodies, drama, a little romance and everything in between.
There are pirates, ghosts, nerds, aliens, laser canons, mad scientists, homicidal rabbits, ferrets, assassins, ninjas, demons, satan-spawn kittens, and is pretty entertaining to boot.
It can be located at www.sluggy.com. Just use the convinient little drop-down bar and enjoy from the beginning, middle, or just jump in at the present- though I wouldn't reccommend it; there are many things that require background information... besides, it's just more fun to read from the beginning!
You can also purchase things to do with the comic or a subscription as a defender of the Nifty to access extra stuff. Enjoy!
