After years of being a freelance writer, I’ve heard and seen some pretty crazy things. A lot of those things tend to do with pricing and payments. It’s amazing how people think they can make a successful business by paying an English speaking writer ten cents (an article, not word). However, I just usually walk away from most of them. I have my rates posted on some of the sites where people contact me and if people are unable to pay attention to them, then I just ignore the bids.
This one though…this one just takes the cake. It is by far the most laughable offer I have ever received. The sad thing is that I am sure someone will end up doing it, further allowing these cheapskates to assume that it’s okay to charge writers the little money that they do.
