I have been a freelancer for 15 years and I’m quite content with a €100 (excl. VAT) rate. Yes I pay insurances and my pension from that as well.
I don’t know many civil servants who earn a salary of €130000+, but then I don’t know many civil servants who work tax-free for the EU.

@axel@hsnl.social @malte@anticapitalist.party @bert_hubert@eupolicy.social yep, things do look nice financially if you're employed by say the Joint Research Center of the EU Commission, for example. An hourly salary of > 30€ isn't rare though, so I really don't think you're overbilling.
