That's what I would charge around here. Worst one I have is about a half acre that has tones of fucking flower beds in it. I have to push mow it because a riding mower will not fit.

You would cut 2 acres and 4 hours for $100?

I cut 5 acres, seedeater a pipe and cattle panel fence, 4 ditch lines and sprayed a 2 acre gravel lot for $125 a week. That's what it goes for around here. $25 an hour for easy work is good money. Its a hell of a lot better than splitting wood or laying brick.

That's what it is here. Average annual salary is like $30,000 where I live. When they did the census there was only a hand full of people making over $100,000 in the area.

Don't be that guy that undercuts a pro by half, unless you just suck that bad at cutting.

Whoa, pump the brakes. A "pro"? We're still talking about cutting fucking grass, right? Its not golf course turf management is it?

Exactly right. You can get it cheap, or you can get it good, but you never get it cheap and good.
