300 minimum for contract work
I've got mouths to feed
Is that a number you can actually charge? Because if so, there's some prices I'm gonna have to raise.
You can charge it, but that doesn't mean anyone's gonna pay it. Highly depends on your specific market and skillset.
At the very least, it's definitely useful as a "fuck you" price.
And I got a real job that I will be doing for longer than a week, so the the money has to justify me spending my rare free time.
