    I'm looking around on upwork.com to find some freelance work... This is probably the most popular website out there to find work in various catergories. There's a lot of jobs available BUT the budget of the companies/people posting job are ridiculous! Just an example, "i need an illustrator to create 10 icons for a website based on the drawings i've made - Budget: 15$" .... A logo, budget 5$ ... A products catalogue, budget 50$ .... Multiple photo retouching including upscaling not large enough pics (!) and changing background, budget: 20$

    Fuck that!

    • on upwork you have to build up some reputation to access the bigger projects.sted
    • freelancer.com offers better options for quick money, but competition is huge.sted
    • this is the open market. It makes sense if you're living in vietnam where $300/month gets you pretty far._niko
