Why freelancers under-charge
Most people set their rate by taking a salary they'd like and dividing by 2,080 hours. That quietly ignores three expensive realities of self-employment: you pay both halves of Social Security and Medicare tax, you cover your own business expenses and benefits, and a big chunk of your week is unpaid — admin, sales, invoicing, and time between clients. Our calculators build those in so your rate reflects what you actually need to earn.
