Hey Mikael,

Sorry for being away for quite a long time. Yes, I’ve asked her, but she’s not willing to work that much on long term basis.

Hi Simonne, did you ask her?

I am just curious. There are several services offering full time writers so I was just curious since you were offering writing services. Feel free to ask her what she would cost for 40 hours a week and what she would expect to be able to do in that time (in terms of number of articles/words written).

I have no idea. If I took myself as an example, I wouldn’t do it for anything at all. But if you are interested, I know a stay-at-home mom who speaks English and who’d want this kind of job.

The writing schedule example I gave you was an ideal one. It is possible, but with a different mindset that mine or yours. I don’t see myself working that much anymore, but if you asked me 20 years ago…

Now even four hours a day seem a bit too much.

Simonne, if one were to hire a full time writer with you what would you imagine the price would be per month? Mikael Rieck´s last blog post..How to Make a Little Extra Money in the “Real” World

An average wage of EUR 800 in Spain? I had no idea that is was so low. But I guess that living expenses has to be low as well (except for the apartments you mention). In comparison the average wage in Denmark where I live is about EUR 3,000 but prices on everything from groceries to living expenses is equally high so I guess it evens things out.

LMAO – Mikael you beat me to it!

Here in Spain the average wage is now around 800 euros a month which pans out to about $1100. Pretty low when you compare it to the US or even the UK. What is crazy is that the average rent for a small apartment here on the Costa del Sol is still high at 500-600 euros, so how the hell people can afford to live on those wages is beyond me.

I’ve tried to write at the kind of pace you talk about Simonne, and found it impossible to keep up for more than a few days. Its not just the physical writing so much, but all the research and inspired writing to ensure its original plus proof reading.

I think I’ll stick to Frank’s life saver for the bulk of my sites…
