Actually, it is not uncommon to charge different *industries* different
rates; nonprofits typically get lower per-hour rates. There is a
perception about cost and value going on.
And...what precisely is wrong with trying to get as much $$ as you can?
I like hacking, but I also like paying the mortgage on time, funding my
other hobbies, paying for the kids' schools...
