> You can build a 100K car in an hour? Excellent. Why wouldn't ur hourly rate be 100k then (vs $100) ?

  - what if you found an even faster way and did it in 30 minutes, do you charge half that? - what if it takes you a bit longer, 2 hours, is it fair to charge the client 2x? The point is, the client wants a car, not an hour of car-making. Also, the moment you provide an hourly rate you get compared to other hourly workers, whether it’s fair or not. “What?! $100k an hour? Even our lawyers cost less!”

    > The point is, the client wants a car Except most clients don't know what they want in such clearcut way before the project begins.

      The client usually wants a solution. What exactly it is you decide as the expert.
