True, your figures seem correct. I guess the problem is that I haven't had any luck finding any serious client, due to the competition and race-to-the-bottom.

Some clients want quality, of course, but in this economy if it's a lottery to find a job in the real world, it's a lottery for those billing upwards of $100/h on Upwork.
So what's left is small contracts where being a seasoned expert to deal with emergencies is more important than being cheap.

The middle-ground seems like a difficult place to be.
