    Let's face it, where you live/freelance matters an awful lot, too.

    In cities like London, Paris, Amsterdam, New York, Montreal, you could easily be billing anywhere from 450 to 650 per day. Hell, here in Munich, a UX/IA freelancer I hired several times for project work billed us for 550€ ($732.37 USD, £462.66)/day, and I know she's pretty much busy the whole year.

    On the other hand, if you live in the Suburbs of Nowhere, and you're doing freelance design work for the local pool hall's karaoke night posters, and the summer volunteer fire brigade barbecue fundraisers because that's all there is for clients in your little spot of the world, you're not going to be pulling in nearly as much per year. By a long shot.
