what's your side hustle and what's your real hourly rate after expenses?

Question

not your gross revenue. your actual take-home divided by actual hours worked including admin, research, customer service, taxes.

i'll go first: freelance copywriting, about $38/hr after everything. thought it was $60/hr until i started tracking properly.

curious what the real numbers look like across different hustles.
