So I made the mistake when starting to work at home of thinking that I had to make the exact hourly rate that I used to at my old job. What I hadn't taken into account was the cost of gas etc. that I was eliminating from my budget due to working at home.
Anyway there is a really fun hourly rate calculator that will tell you what your actual hourly rate is based on a few variables like drive time and cost of gas etc. If you want to check it out its at Real Telecommute Job Hourly Rate (http://www.employed-online.com/ratecalculator.html)
Let me know what you find. I realized I actually was only making $10 per hour at my job.
