@chrisod Don't set your billing rates too low. Too many companies want to pay FULL_TIME_ANNUAL_SALARY_WITH_BENEFITS/2000 and think it is fair because the average dev doesn't realize that that formula is dog $#!+. And they point out, well health ins is only $14k a year and that is $14/2000 only a $7 an hour difference. But they neglect that it is part time, unemployment between contracts, taxes, risk, etc, etc.
