[consulting] Rate question

[Christian Pearce]

I guess this was directed at me. We would be out of business if our rates were the effective hourly rate of w2 work. When you are 1099 you need to charge your customer more than you would pay yourself to handle operating expenses. So my point is the mechanics of the rate is naturally different between w2 and 1099 work, and you should set your rates accordingly. That was nan's original question.
