    bad idea if you're really trying to start something on your own...

    I know you're thinking that this is good 'regular' income... ... but remember your hourly freelance charge / project charge that you usually come up w/based on the work at hand...

    ... if you get sucked into a specific price - you're stuck w/whatever it is your asked to do - what you'd normally charge $75 / hour for (and let's say it takes you 10 hours)... you merely get your part time wage... and maybe it ended up taking you the week to finish up... ... what about all that other freelance work you could have been charging accordingly for?

    In my experience it's never been 'give and take'... it's always been 'take take take / scrape every last second / thought / idea out of you' that they can...

    ... if you're still freelancing for others - I highly recommend you DO NOT do this - my experience has been that you miss out on 'good projects' that were yours for the taking... ... or you just kill the relationship in general cuz you've told them 'no' a number of times in a row due to a very specif SHITTY commitment you should have never made...
