Stable income: Somewhat stable

I’d rate it a 3 out of 5 because while there is potential for a decent baseline income, the reliability can vary significantly based on location, demand, and individual skill level. It’s not as unpredictable as a 2, where income swings wildly, but it lacks the consistency of a 4, where most months are similar and predictable. Many people experience fluctuations in job availability and client demand, making it moderately stable but not entirely dependable.
