India. I charge $40/hour and people either ask me to charge a one time fee or reduce the price. Funny how people forget there are other places on earth where charging $150/hour would be nuts!

I didn't forget. I simply am not competing with that worker. We aren't in the same labor market.

That's seriously good money if you are not in one of the big cities, right?

That is good money even if he is in the cities, thanks for the conversion rates. But depends on the frequency of work too.

That said, Congrats ishanjain28. I don't even get close to that :)

Key is rate here.

If they work for an hour a week, that amazing number really isn't that amazing anymore.

If they can sustain such a workload over time for hopefully much more than an hour a week (keep in mind, it was 1 free hour per 1 paid hour, so $75/hr average), then yeah, pretty freaking amazing.

I am a student so $40/hour works great for me. I don't know if it's good money when you are paying for rent and other costs in a city.

It's good in any major city in India if you get regular work. Considering average Rs. 12 lpa as what a good software developer earns as full time (at least 50 hours/ week).
