Take-away: Starting a business is hard. Contracting is much much much more profitable in the short term.

I wish the author compared his contracting value creation with his project's value creation.

One of the implications of "quitting contracting" for me is that I'm not letting myself compare anything to my contractor day rate. Suffice to say for the last six months, compared to contracting, my income has been basically 0.
