Well, if by "freelancing" you mean working for yourself as an independent 1099 contractor rather than as a W-2 employee, then you can make quite a bit. The IT and Web development guys who work with me are pretty much all independent contractors, and they make around $60 to $75 an hour. Of course, they have to pay self-employment taxes and all their own Social Security and Medicare and health insurance premiums out of that, so it's probably not quite as good as it sounds, but they still do OK. I guess the short answer is, it depends on what kind of work you're talking about doing
