say "yes" for things you aren't into doing but just make sure you ask for super high amounts of money, so that you're happy if they accept your offer.
nice theory for "getting more money is good" but doesn't work for "I have no time". If people could package up "more time" for me in some kind of interdimensional container, I'd be all set.
- ghaff 3y agoYep. I'm almost certainly not going to cancel personal plans especially for something that's "just business." However, if I don't have any urgent plans and you want me to do some well-scoped short-term job for you or even hop on a plane for a consulting day, I'll probably do it for a fairly generous hourly rate/per diem. But I won't be a bargain unless it's something I really want to do or could lead to some sort of follow-on business.
- yayitswei 3y agoYou can buy time with money (with some limitations).
- xyzelement 3y agoIf you end up in a situation where people consistently offer you more money than you are otherwise getting, you will solve the time problem by shifting to the more-money type work... If your big (technically, your ask) isn't high enough to cause you to make the time, the it's not high enough.
