Stable income: Somewhat stable

I’d rate it a 3 out of 5 because while video editing can provide a decent baseline income, it often lacks predictability. Many editors experience fluctuations in client demand and project availability, leading to periods of instability. However, with a strong portfolio and network, some consistency can be achieved, distinguishing it from a 2. Yet, it doesn’t reach a 4 due to the inherent variability in freelance work.
