Hi El, I think in regards to jobs I would check if there is something out there on a fix basis for you as Steve stated.

I was also a self-employed freelancer, but most of the time working for the same company. A few months ago I asked them to become a salary worker on a full time basis for them and they agreed.

So I'm no longer self-employed, and don't have to worry anymore now if I get sick or if I would have an accident or anything like that, and 100% sure of my monthly salary.

This gives a lot of peace in your head. Maybe something to think about.
