I'm 16 years old and have a steady income for the last 3 month as PHP developer company in Israel which pays me almost doubled then your high rate (if you convert it from Israeli Shequl to $). I wouldn't work for less than 20$ per hour - that's for sure. I don't think your will find a good programmer outside India in those rates. Although on the other hand I know teenagers in Israel who would like to take this project ;) Wishing you luck in the journey after your desired 15$ programmer, Nitsan On Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 4:46 PM, Rene Veerman <rene7705@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Daniel Brown wrote: > >> On Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 4:26 AM, Brennon Bortz <brennon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> wrote: >> >> >>> Actually, speaking as someone now living in the UK, your low end is LESS >>> than minimum wage here.
