I have worked as a contractor before. I do enjoy the freedom and an "easy" fallback, so I'm far from going hungry. I would probably make more money as an independent consultant than I would within one of these institutions.
That being said, institutions have a certain degree of "notoriety" that perhaps appeals to me for whatever selfish reason. I just wanted to have this conversation before I went further down that road only to discover a dead end.
