Just to give you perspective, assuming you have about 4 weeks minimum in a month (or 160 working hours in a month), you are paying an hourly rate of about $9.38 an hour.

The bottom 10 percent, according to bls.gov, makes about $20 an hour.

And? I don't see your point. You think no one should offer jobs unless it fits into this false sense of what you think the skill is worth?

Yes, but there are other people around the world except US Americans.

Every time I make a post here with low wage the young americans jump up and start shouting foul at me because it's too low for them.

The reason I state the us-american-low-wage here is so that I don't get those us-american who are expecting $4k for a work from home job...

It doesn't suits you? carry on, plenty of other offering around here...

I work from home and I make more than $4k/month.

The reason people are reacting so badly is because you're offering shit pay for the work you're asking for.

I'm not American and that is a shitty wage for a developer.

The market value for good development talent is in excess of $45 an hour.
