What Happened to WeWork? The True Story Behind 'WeCrashed

Recent highlights:

1. While you could rent a desk for as long or, crucially, as little as you liked, WeWork had to pay the whole rent for the space regardless — meaning the company began to bleed cash.

2. Neumann pitched WeWork as a movement and ran his company accordingly.

3. Despite broadcasting themselves as the next tech firm to shake up our lives, WeWork was actually an old school real-estate firm, which meant the huge cash injections they received didn't go as far as they would in the tech firms they were modelling themselves on, as they had all the IRL overheads of old-school landlords

I've been a freelancer for 10 years. Here are 4 strategies that have helped me get paid what I deserve

Recent highlights:

1. I've joined networks like Pitch Whiz, a website for journalists and editorial professionals looking to either sell or buy stories, Who Pays Writers, an anonymous, crowd-sourced database of pay rates across print and digital media, and Freelancers Union, a nonprofit organization that educates and advocates for freelancers of all stripes.

2. Similarly, when I see a friend has written for a publication that I'm interested in, I'll reach out and ask who their editor is and what their typical rate is, so that I know if it's even worth my time to pitch them
