Go for it. My brother has a job but occasionally freelances for just few months, not even every year. It’s a lot of work but he makes a ton of money when he needs large sum in a short period of time. He’s doing it right now. I think you could start but then if you get a job just keep it as a side job. I think it’s a great plan to freelance!

How much are the tools you need? It might be totally worth it!
