Ask HN: How do I start being a consultant?
How is being a consultant different than being a freelance developer? Is it just nominal?

Freelance developers charge $100 an hour to write PHP apps, consultants charge $40k to solve a problem costing the business $200k a year. That solution might be a PHP app that takes 2 weeks to write.
Not really joking here.
