If you were an indentured servant you would live in colonial America and you would probably live in the house of a rich general. You would basically have no life and get paid very little if at all. Most indentured servants were very young, starting at even age 13. You're duties would be to clean, cook, and you may even be assingned to a specific person in the house. You would take care of that person and clean their room and bring them meals.

You would find an indentured servant in the South. An indentured servant is, typically, a white male who ventured from Britain during the Colonial Era who needed money and land to begin a life in America. They worked for a couple years on a farm or plantation and were later "paid" for their services.

When an indentured servant was done serving his term with his "master" in the New World, the master gave him Freedom Dues. They consisted of land, possessions, and/or money. This was part of the agreement of the indentured servant's term.
Here is one example of contracting to work for a master. Very often in the early days of colonialism in the 13 British colonies, persons would agree to work as indentured servants to either get to the New World, or if already there, to become such a servant for a specified number of years. Quite often this was also a method for the servant to gain knowledge about a trade or craft. One could be a servant in a blacksmith shop and learn this craft for room & board, no pay. At the end of the designated amount of time the indentured servant would become a free man and very likely either work for pay in the craft or if lucky be able to open their own place of business.
