I once billed myself out at £1500/day. It was for just one days work though, and we threw in a junior consultant for free.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostI put my annual income (salary + bonus + company pension) from my last P60 into an online calculator, and my daily rate if you like, is £330 per day.
So if this geezer is really on £1K per day, then it's more like 3x than 5x.
I still don't believe him though.
The willy waving (other genitalia is available) in this thread is quite funny though.Comment

£800 a day. On an ad hoc consulting basis. Managed to bill over 20 days so far.

That's silly. If you're happy with what you earn, your bills are paid and you have all you need then measuring your rate against a bunch of internet eejits is a fine route to madness.Originally posted by Andy2 View PostThis thread makes me feel like a peasant
