There's always some shit fucker down the road who'll do the work for next to nothing.
I reckon when starting as a freelancer you need to be prepared to work long hard hours for a pretty basic wage until your established with a decent rep and client base.
It's like some 15yr old who's mega at football, demanding £80,000 a week before he's even kicked a ball. He might be as talented as half the premiership but he's gotta clean the boots and get some games under his belt before the big contract comes in.

I usually disagree with you as a matter of course, but thats the most sensible thing you've ever written, you have to pay your dues like anything else
