Years ago when I started my own small business, I’d bristle when someone said, “So you’re a freelancer?”

At the time, the idea of being a freelancer — someone without a full-time, paying position — seemed a pretty negative way to be described.

That certainly has changed.

Now, a third of the American workforce are freelancers or independent contractors, according to a study that the Freelancers Union and Elance-oDesk commissioned.
