All jobs in the modern economy require capital to be on-site. Some capital is more realistically held at home than others, of course. What kind of threshold are we using to draw a dividing line? I know a number of people who really do have lathes and mills at home, so we need to be more specific here about where the line is drawn.

I have a lathe and a mill at home. Quit my job in the city 1.5 hours away during covid and now run a business from home / get to be a parent. It’s the best. I gave up $190k salary to barely make my mortgage, best decision I ever made!
