Well, there is -- 2000-2500 work hours/year at say $100/hr -- $200k - 
$250k (flavor to taste or individual circumstances)  This is probably 
the biggest downside to strict consulting.  You're selling your time.  
You need to add people or develop resellable products to go past that 
and get a multiplier or residual effect going.
