Boring Topic, Money
I want to see what you thieves out there are charging out there. I'm the kind of guy who hates office and paper work and but like the physical stuff. I talk to other contractor friends and sometimes get big differences in numbers. Some charge a straight wage but those are usually working by themselves or paying once in awhile a labor cash. Some charge their wage plus 10% or 15% or even 20% for cost of business and then profit. Then on their employees some charge their labors cost including taxes and ins. then add 10 or 15% some add $5 an hr. more for their profit. Any input is welcomed

Re: Boring Topic, Money
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?
Question, charge how much, want you to know my young padawan? Thief, think you I am? According to the dictionary, thief a person who steals, esp. secretly or without open force; one guilty of theft or larceny. (Synonyms) burglar, pickpocket, highwayman. Thief, robber refer to one who steals. A thief takes the goods or property of another by stealth without the latter's knowledge: like a thief in the night. A robber trespasses upon the house, property, or person of another, and makes away with things of value, even at the cost of violence: A robber held up two women on the street. According to the dictionary, Contractor A person who contracts to furnish supplies or perform work a certain price or rate. For this answer, contractor, not thief, will I be. Charge you must, what you need to live the level of life you want. If happy living in a trailer park you are, charge less you must. If happy living an average life you are, more must you charge. If Jedi want you to be, even more must you charge. If Master of the force what you seek, the most must you charge. What charge I, question must you not ask. What life YOU want to have, true question must be. Listen to everone else you must, if the Dark Side you wish. The book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, must you read, if understanding of the force you seek. Do not what others do, if the force you seek. The Dark Side, all around you it is I feel. A Jedi Master, to teach you the way, must you find. Years, must you invest, in learning it. Many battles must you fight, to understand it. Give back and teach the way when you learn it, you must. May the force be with you and those whom seek it.

Re: Boring Topic, Money
The Jedi Master and Dark Side post is complete BS , can't understand how some people make time for s... like this; to the OP, please, write a book and maybe you won't have to buy toilet paper(at least for a while).
