The only person who can answer that question is YOU.
To become a Freemason you must ask, un-influenced, of your own free will, to join. Either by asking a Freemason you know to get you a petition, or by contacting a Freemason Lodge directly.
I wont sing the praises of Freemason, we don't brag, and we don't solicit members, it really needs to be a decision you make on your own and for your own reasons.
If you are interested, but are not sure, may I suggest contacting a local lodge. Someone will meet with you, outside of Freemasonry and talked to you about what happens, what they do, and specifically about their lodge.
You should be able to make a personal choice for yourself.
If you do not know of any Freemasons or how to make contact with the lodge message me with your location, as much as you feel comfortable with, and I will find you a contact.

Nope, masons should be able to earn a living wage just like everyone else. You might become an inexpensive mason, a fair mason or even a discount mason but not a free mason. You might be a mason who volunteers for Habitat for Humanity, how's that for a compromise.

Freemasonary, as a movement entails in the first instance, meetings where rituals, secret signs and symbols are used which a member is obliged under oath to protect and preserve. It is also a place of fellowship where charitable acts are also performed without the fanfare and publicity which other "open social movements" like Rotary or Lions tend to have. Membership is by invitation, unless you get yourself invited.

I am not exactly sure what that is. Is it a cult? If you can define its belief system and match those beliefs to the definition of a cult, then no, you shouldn't become one. I say this because while I don't understand what masons do, I have heard it said in many churches that they are cultish in nature. A good rule of thumb should be that if you have reservations, are uncomfortable, feel uneasy about it - then don't.

Yes. I have some brick work that needs to be done and if you do it for free I'll be grateful.
