Thanks for sharing your experiences!

I did well in Kaggle's highest-prized competition[1], so I wondered if I should explore this kind of consulting myself.

The competition I was in was effectively limited to US residents though, but as a "remote" freelancer you compete world-wide, potentially with people willing to work for far less. Are there reasons your clients prefer US-based freelancers enough to justify the gap in pay?
