On the other hand, in Canada you can put part of your mortgage paiement as deductible if you work from home (same thing with you computer, phone, etc). So that does lower your taxes compared with someone who work in a company. Is it the same in the US?

What skills to offer (and where to grow)

I suck at UI design (for example making a good looking OK button in photoshop), but I'm a pretty good programmer. How would you approach that? Do you think subcontracting a UI designer would work? Or usually it's the other way around (UI designer subcontract the programmer to build the web site logic).

Have you been badly burn by a client? (ex. doing a lot of work without getting paid). What's the ratio of good client vs bad ones?
