Awhile back someone posted an equation for finding your hourly rate but I can’t find it. Something like yearly salary divided by 600. Am I nuts? Anyone know what I’m talking about?

Assuming you have paid vacation (your gross salary)/(40*52) = hourly rate at your job. That assumes you work no over time. 😂😭

Should be ÷ 125 to get your day rate.

This means a person making $150K annual should get $1200/day as a freelancer.

Remember, they aren’t just paying for overhead, they are also paying for the luxury of not having a commitment.

smart

And as a freelancer you have to pay double social security

Sweet, thanks.
