My wife won't let me deposit money online(fear of me turning into a degenerate gambler) so I'm currently playing a semi-regular home game and trying the freerolls.

But are they worth it? I'm talking about the 2700 player games with 4/9ths of the table going all-in preflop on the first few hands.

Are there alternatives? Is playing freerolls going to be bad for long-term development?
No they are not worth playing. Get some balls and deposit some money. If your wife lets you play for hours but only for free then you will never be able to build a bankroll anyway and may as well play WSOP on PS3. The moment you have $50 or more she will make you withdraw anyway because she is obviously afraid you will lose it.
