Hi Jean-Francois,

Hi, I posted a project offer on many freelancers sites but had very expansive offers (from 
150$to 1000$ !)

You must be joking. You find $150 already expensive? A skilled
freelancer takes at least (!) $80 per hour, so you are not even willing
to pay for 2 hours of his/her precious time. Good luck.

I thought that by "expansive" he didn't mean "expensive," rather that
he was seeing a very wide range of offers, and was curious about what
would actually be a plausible fee for the work.

(Now that Eike's given some rough ideas about consulting gigs,
hopefully that will be enough to inform Jean-Francois' decisions, and
help J-F avoid getting fleeced by some charlatan :-)


Cheers,
