I had to have an oeverview as well, because my fees are different for every situation, I just don't have A plan, B plan or C plan

Some of my folks do pay right when I finish, most say "can you send me the bill?"

Most pay within 30 days

How many hours of work for 2k?

ANyway....I don't like being yelled at by a punk 30 year old whiner. Entitled jerk. I of course, being the "adult" had to sit there and listen to him

About 5

hours

Damn son, that's a nice hourly rate.

Not bad

$400/hr is "not bad?"

I wish I made $400/hr 😄

I'm joking lol

I'm just being that cunt

I'm under $50/hr still 😦

I need to become an accountant apparently.

I'm on 17$ an hour

Welp I literally only have twitch to watch now, lol.

Now, if I am just doing a weekly payroll.......takes me an hour, and IF we have a good working realtionship, and you're giving me steady work every few weeks???? Pay me 50.00.......75.00

Wow, that's amazing.

Did you move out of IT because accounting is way better pay?

No. I wanted steady work

Do you have to deal with people bitching and not wanting to pay full price often?

someone has ALWAYS got to count the money ALWAYS

sometimes. I don't work for a firm or company, I'm freelance....so I do get that a bit more

What does the future look like with software solutions ramping up?

@Deleted User Wait. You didn't have steady work in IT? It's a normal boring 9-5 whereas you're making bank as an accountant. Now are you CPA or have any specific licenses?

I am CPA

I won't hate that shit

@MufflePuff For accounting?

Yeah

@Deleted User Ah! That is why you can command $400+/hr

Now.....when I was at IBM, I was pulling about 90K a year right before I retired

@MufflePuff Honestly, I think software can automate most of what @Deleted User does but you'll always WANT a human to double check it. You disagree @Deleted User?

@Deleted User Yeah, that sounds about right in tech.

I'll be getting 90k in 1-2 years.

Seems like if it's a small business they can use software, but if the business is large, they'd have in-house accountants.

But accounting would be 150+k with your rate 😄

@MufflePuff Yeah, it depends really.

People still don't want a machine to handle THEIR money when it comes to the books....sure, some basic debit and credit.....but when it comes time to "account" and see where its going and how, and rolling monthly....you will still need a person at this point and into the forseable future

In 1989, I was making 28K when I started, and that was an okay wage

at IBM
