Summary:Freelancers have to take care of each and every business activity, even if they work only for themselves and have no employees. Administration sometimes tends to take over a lot work time and it is necessary to have a good balance between the work you earn money with and the administrative work (that is necessary to earn money). Not to forget one tends to have a private life as well, which can be also quite absorbing.
