[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand these billing rates. When the OP says she’s earning $625/hour, is that actually $625 x 40 hours x 50 weeks = $1.25 million per year? Because if so, then obviously she should be outsourcing everything and living a great life. If on the other hand, she spends a significant amount of time marketing herself, submitting proposals, doing other business nonsense, and only actually bills 15 hours a week, then the situation is quite different. She still makes a good living but can’t outsource everything to the same degree.[/quote] OP here. I don't need to spend any time on marketing and "business proposals", only on managing my two employees. However, I work part-time 9 am - 3 pm (minus lunch), with school vacations off.[/quote] You work 9-3, are self employed and a solo practitioner, have too much work already and have clients who have to wait to hear from you? You don’t want to cook because you don’t want to cook. You aren’t bulking hours after 3, so losing billable hours is a false argument. And it’s ridiculous it takes 90 min to make a meal and clean it up…as well as you finding cooking dinner tiring after you’ve had several hours off in bw 3 (when you finish work) until dinner prep time.
