AIBU to be getting royally pissed off? I have always struggled financially (single mum, lowish income etc.) and a year ago decided to quit and start my own business. This was never going to make much money. I accepted that I would be far worse off, but it was more a quality of life issue. My charges are competitive and people I haven't met previously never question them. However, my friends who are without exception, far better off than me, invariably ask for mates rates. Some even tell me what they will pay me, not even asking my rates. Now, I do appreciate them giving me the business, but if I was supporting a friend in a new venture, I would absolutely insist on paying the going rate. I have done all these jobs at vastly reduced rates but as I am living hand-to-mouth, I am beginning to get fed up. AIBU or am I a mug? I'm really bad at confrontation and discussing money.
