There are several people at my coworking space who work remotely for companies overseas, as well as quite a few individual contractors or 2 person businesses. They can work from home if they want to (and sometimes do), but they like coming into a space where they work around other people who are also working.
They work here because they get a clear separation between work and home, and because they get lonely working at home, as well as losing key networking opportunities. I don't mean networking in the "make me money" way, but just in the "meet other people who do the same thing" way.
Not everyone wants to work from home. I never could, I'd be spending in excess of 16 hours a day in the same little space, that sounds like a special kind of hell for me, it would be like prison. I think that there's nothing worse than sitting at home all day on just the weekend, I couldn't do it all week as well.
