Well from the first few months I started my business in 2003 I made the same amount of money as I would have earnt in my executive PA role. With better tax advantages and tax deductions and no childcare costs, I couldn't be happier with the money I am able to earn. In fact I'm even taking a well earned break (because I usually work seven days a week at odd hours, because I work around the children) and heading from my home in Melbourne Australia to Big White in Canada for a family skiing trip. We certainly love our skiing and believe me it's an expensive hobby and I am of course able to sustain such a hobby on my virtual assistant income. So what are you waiting for, get out there and start your virtual assistant home business, if I did you can too.

Well I've had my fair share of discrimination whilst pregnant with my first child in the workforce. But with my second pregnancy I was a full time virtual assistant. None of my clients even knew I was pregnant until I emailed them a month before I was due to go in for my c/section informing them that I will not be available for six days. My work never faltered, my quality of work never diminished. They were gobsmacked when I told them I was going into hospital. They didn't even get a chance to try to discriminate against me. I also am not discriminated against for being the stereotypical blonde, who must be dumb of course, because I have long blonde hair, nope, several of my clients have no idea what I even look like. Then I came out of hospital and went straight back to work, picking up one local client's work off my porch, the day I came home from hospital. No maternity leave for us VAs, but I seemlessly continued on with my work and no client has ever had cause to complain as I work around my children now. Being a pregnant VA and having no discrimination targeted at me was a major benefit of being a virtual assistant that I really never thought of before.
