All I am saying is that you will generally pay too much for someone else
to do the job for you because you pay for everyone from the low paid
laborer to the secretary, all the supplies, all the petty licenses,
insurance, "extra costs just so the head guy can sip cock tails",
"experience costs", etc. Call someone to do some work and you are helping
to put someones kid through college.



I'm curious now. What kind of work do you do?



Software Engineer now. Before that, Electronics Technician and Nuclear
Power Plant operator. But I didn't learn how to fix things around the
house by doing any of that.


So the purchasers of the software you write should obviously be writing
their own as they're paying for the business license of of your employer
as well as the secretary and your benefit and fringe package and the
machine and tools you're using to develop with.

Right! NOW I get it...
