Work from an office and u will earn well after a couple of years. Later u may work from home in a group of 3-4 HBMTs to continue to earn well as you can take 2-3 accounts. However, even after office experience, if u attempt to work alone from home then you will be EMPTY rather than MT. This is my experienced personal opinion and on top of that you will lose hard earned earlier office based MT skills.
I totally disagree on the above on certain aspects, but agree on most of the aspects.
Working from home will never leave you empty as far as you are fully equipped with necessary skills for which you require at least 1-2 years of in-house experience (or even less) depending on the caliber of your learning abilities. The life in his field will not be that bad after a getting the much required experience and knowledge. I would only say those negative comments are unnecessary and would only come from those who are unwilling to explore their potentials. The more you equip with medical terminologies and other aspects that are required for this medical transcription work, the more are your chances of earning equivalent to a software engineer.
All the best to become a successful medical transcriptionist!
