Ask HN: Freelance Work Questions

by maresca on 2/3/15, 5:43 PM with 1 comments

I've been looking at software development freelancing gigs on elance, odesk, etc and have been seeing really low rates. On top of that, I see bids coming from other countries that I'm sure someone in the US couldn't beat. Are US based freelancers making a living wage? What sites are they using to find work? Any advice is appreciated.

    I've heard you get better rates on TopTal and through 10x.
