I run a boutique consultancy primarily focussed on mobile apps(iOS, Android and Blackberry) and we currently charge $100/hr. I have a feeling that we undercharge, but so far our numbers are working out, so not complaining.

I am one of those victims. Not only paid $550 and another 8hrs of my life trying to deal with it in the court unsuccessfully. All for not coming to a complete stop before taking the right turn. Live and learn :)

I probably shouldn't be admitting it here, but I quit my job, got started and the whole bookkeeping, accounting thing is still a mess. But everything else, getting customers and delivering them what they need is going flawlessly. I am much
