[QUOTE="Lyle Williams, post: 123164, member: 6359"] Re: Price check in Aisle 5 This is the Junior Varsity section. I'm not doing this for a living, I have a great day job. Money out, joy in. But yes, there is insurance coverage for the activities I undertake. :-) Anyone who is doing this for a living needs to plan to "pay themselves first." How much money do you want to earn each year? How many jobs are you likely to do each year? Is this your only job, or if not, what percentage of your income is this meant to bring in? That will set a floor price before expenses like transport, insurance, gear, risk, etc get factored in. Want to bring in $40k doing two shows a week (100 per year) then there needs to be $400 per show in your pocket after the gear/van etc is paid for. Scary huh? [/QUOTE]
