Recent Fortune magazine story put it, "Forget the paycheck; your W-2 days are over. It's a 1099 world now."Many larger corporations are laying off people by the hundreds and throusands.

The US Department of Labor reports that the annual turnover rate rose to 41% in '05. Many are leaving corporate jobs on their own accord. People want to work less and get paid more. Most of all, people want to have time to spend with their loved ones. According to Paul Zane Pilzer, " We're in the midst of a boom in HOME BASED BUSINESSES, and it shows no sign of slowing down."This distinguished economist and ... 02/05/2008
