SOHO working style is advanced and should be encouraged.     1    , working at home instead of office is cost-efficient to the whole society. It can save a lot of unnecessary costs. The employers no longer have to pay for Internet use, electricity and other expenses related to the office daily work.     2    , the SOHOs do not need to wake up early every morning just for taking the bus. They can spend longer time in sleeping than before, which will make them energetic at work. I think working at a flexible time schedule is beneficial to us to balance between family and work.     3    , this working style should be encouraged.

Although this kind of lifestyle is attractive to a lot of people, it is also a riskier proposition than working at a traditional job.
