That is quite amazing. I am writing this as someone who has just rewritten an Access piece of crap for a construction company. I charged them $15k for 4-5 months of part time work. It is not a rewrite of their original app, it is an order of magnitude better, but if they saw your git versioning WINE running frankenstein, i wonder if they would have chosen that. Now i am off to sell this software again now that i have been paid to write it once. I wonder if you could get a nice income stream by referring companies who want to upgrade their application slowly. Now I am living in the USA, if I lived in another country I could take that $15k and live for 1 year. Here it is hardly much at all. I would love to take US jobs for $15k and finish them in 2-3 months. Low end US freelancer rates, but do a high quality job.
