Well said. Long ago I made a point of cutting my consulting rate in half when I was working from the beach. I still put plenty away into savings and got to spend my free time climbing or doing whatever I wanted in a nice tropical environment. Life was good.

Then one time I decided to not cut my rate in half on a quote. Nobody but me seemed to notice.

So now I don't do that anymore. Life's even gooder.
