If this is your approach to hiring consultants, I'd like to set up a meeting. :)

Sure, as long as you're okay being terminated without warning. And we're expecting results quickly. Like within the first hour.

This made me laugh. Can't tell if it's a joke or not.
Are you looking to hire robots or something?

I now understand why people were asking for so much up front…

Yes it's a joke, but also not really.
If I have an issue and I'm paying a high paid consultant to solve it, well he needs to solve it, right? Particularly if he's not writing code.
A $450/hr consultant better be able to save $4500/hr. A $1000/hr consultant better be able to save $10k/hr.

No, you make that decision. It's not given to you. You could be out -$4500 after a consultant has told you that they cannot save you the money. They're not robots. But likely most consultants are there because they can save you money, well.
