1. You might have a neighbor that likes to drive past your house on his riding lawnmower, thus making clients on the other end of the phone say, "What's that noise?" Trying to explain it becomes difficult when they are under the impression that you are actually working in an office.
2. You will have unlimited access to your cupboards and food, therefore, your risk of obesity is much higher because you can eat ice cream, cookies, and Butterfingers anytime you want.
3. If you choose to be the better person and not buy junk food, thus reducing your risk of becoming obese, your family will hate you, and the evening hours of your day will be miserable.
4. You will likely get distracted by things such as laundry, MySpace, YouTube, and Facebook.
5. It's easy to develop and online gambling habit.
6. You only get paid when your clients decide it's time to cut a check; you cannot storm in to their offices and demand payment if they do not live in the same town as you.
7. If they do live in the same town, and you do storm into their office, be prepared to be escorted out by security, never see the money the owe you, and never be able to work in the town you live in again.
8. Your significant other may develop the annoying habit of saying, "So, what are you doing tomorrow?" If you state the obvious, "working just like you," s/he will roll their eyes and say, "No, really, what are you doing?" This will cause tension in your household and you will have to fight the urge to screech, "do you think I just pluck paychecks off the money tree in the backyard asshole?"
9. You might decide to blog all day instead of actually working.
10. You run the risk of becoming socially inept because you spend your entire day with two dogs, a cat, and your computer.
