I completely agree with this; however, there is another way to approach the situation. I recently went through almost the exact same experience OP did and decided to cut everything extraneous out of my life and take a remote dev job. This has allowed me to slow life down, re-focus on the things that matter in life and build up my bank account. THIS gives me the freedom to go and create and build and run whatever I want if I so choose.

So, don't feel bad doing a job. Nothing is beneath you, and everything is always a stepping stone between where you are now and where you will be later.

Interesting meta content:

"The official site of Zach Galifianakis. Zach is so happy that you found his site. Though he doesn't have the ablility to feel any shred of emotion for another human being he is content that his money was well spent in a website. Do not attempt to make contact, physical or otherwise, with Zach Galifianakis or any of his associates. Failure to follow such requests could result in loneliness and an overall realization that you and someone of his magnitude can never be friends. Zach Galifianakis does accept money. No sexual favors will be handed out for such monkeys received. Zach Galifianakis does not like children unless under the influence of something strong at a high dose. Zach Galifiankis spells his name as such to confuse the living fuck out of you, all your friends, your friends friends and the Pope. Do not question Zach Galifianakis."

Without following the Ron Baker links, what is a good scenario for how to calculate and use value pricing?

Is it along these lines? "ABC business needs a custom inventory management solution which also doubles as an e-commerce platform. This will likely generate them X amount of money per year, so we're going to price this solution at Y."

If so, how do you quantify these variables?

note: I have no business degree and am a developer.
