    I have been working as a permenent programmer for one and half years and feel boring more and more recently ...
    I think Contract is a more attractive choice...
    Now my salary is about 60K. What kind of rate for Contract equals to this level.
    Also, Could some DX(s) who are old Contract guys give me some ideas about the major differences between Perm and Contract.

    Thanks
    • when bubble was not bursted, the hourly rate for a 60k man is about 60. which means double the money pretax, more than double after tax... right now, the rate for contractors on Monster.com scared the Jesus out of me...
      • "double the money pretax" the 60k job translates to C$30/hour? (40 hour/week, 50 weeks/yr considering annual leave) btw, single 60k guy, 40% tax?
        • You'll know when get here... are you here already?
          • data needed to decide if and when to come. thanks
            • Check the NASDAQ index... right it's around 1600 plus (i guess)... when it gets to 2000, come, UNIX admin is a good skill.
