I'm going to start doing some freelance work for my old boss.
My client wants me to submit an hourly rate and I have no clue what to charge her. I make roughly 30,000 at my firm right now, and I want to be fair to her because she is a former boss.
Thanks for the help.

I have noticed a drop in the construction industry, across the nation it dropped by 35%. I wonder if people believe it is caused by the heat or our economy. August is usually the busiest time of year for painting and other construction trades? I know the sell of new homes is down, the building of new homes is down as well, and I herd that one mortgage company is filling for bankruptcy because so many people are late on their payments. What is going on, does anyone have any knowledge on this issue?

I just turned 13 years old. I heard that my cousin who is one month younger than me opened up her own business by giving manicures/pedicures/and massages to family/friends and charging them money. I want to do the same thing, but I want to sell beaded bracelets that I make to friends, family, and people who just like beaded stuff. Are there any good websites that will teach me how to make my own little business? For free.

I am a young single mother, with a low income. I wish to start up my own business. I have researched wholesalers, know what my start up costs will be, and approximately my profit per item will be. I know a great deal about web and graphic design so I can advertise myself. I can actually get started up on a thousand dollars. Where can I find a source for grant money that best fits my needs?

I am a Filipino (hopefully looking for answers from any other filipino experianced in this matter) looking to either obtain a small business loan, state, government, or privatized funded grant, or other acquirable capital to buy into a small business that is essentially a franchise.

Not like a restaurant but a service company requiring $50,000 capital for the equipment purchase. I would also need an additional $25-50,000 for overhead (building lease, advertising, uniforms, etc.).

I live in Texas if that is relevent. I do not have any of my own capital and or collateral. I rent my home and only have a vehicle paid off. I have dark brown curly hair, enjoy strolls on the beach and like to karoake......whoa, ok, now I'm going off on a tangent.

Anyways, any information would be greatly appreciated. And as I do on other questions, smart alecky remarks will be welcome as well....
