Going rates are typically start at 50/hr often with some minimum. I usually charge 40/hr south of 44, however I am looking to get 50.00 to 'start my truck'. That is basically a bottom of the market rate for someone in the neighborhood, a retiree looking for something to do. Someone who is looking to make a living at it will probably be looking for A minimum of $100 to start their to truck.

At 40/hr I typically work 25 hours a week without looking for work. Many people are alone or have simply lost muscle mass. Some tools like a laser to set the height of pictures are useful and those costs do add up.
