I think $83k is definitely doable. Probably could go to $90k depending on the shop and years of exp.

Might be nearly impossible since you're being paid hourly and get OT as a freelancer. What is your title/freelance rate?

Copywriter @ $40/hour which comes to about $83K. Didn't negotiate and now realizing I could have asked for much more. Thinking about going full time after this contract, but there's no way I can live off of anything less than $75k.

Uh half is normal. When you're full time the overhead of having an employee is usually a little less than half their salary. Benefits, insurance, commuter stuff, computer, your physical footprint, potentially food, etc
