Keisha Sumner hates working for the man... or woman for that matter. So the 34-year-old embarked on the endeavor of a lifetime: financial independence. She left traditional corporate America cold turkey. No mandatory office hours. No boss. No chain of command. No consistent paycheck. "I love my lifestyle," she says. "Entrepreneurship allows me to take control. It's fun." Over the last seven years Sumner, who holds a BA in chemical engineering from Howard University, has made the lion's share of her income working as a real estate agent in Maryland. Still, even before the housing bust, most nights she was also working her side hustle. Sumner supplements her income with a side business many of us have tried, considered or have at least been the target of an attempted recruitment -- working as an independent representative.
