80 billable hours per week. That's double a normal work week. And I assume that you would need extra for administrative stuff that you can't bill for. I doubt this would be either healthy or productive for most people.

The same could be said of start-up founders, which was the point.
But you can re-do the math at 40 hours a week if you like:
40 hours * 50 weeks * $200/hr = $400,000 / 52 weeks @ $1,000 per week = 7.69 years to do what you want.
And again, we're only talking about a year. Spend a year killing yourself, and then spend the next 5 on the beach or climbing Everest or writing a novel.
The Alberta oil sands are hiring. They pay upwards of $100-$200 an hour and pay for all your housing and meal expenses if your willing to live on camp for 6 months of the year. Works if your single but puts a big strain on your relationships with friends and family.
A lot can happen in a year not to just you but your family and friends that you could miss out on. Look forward to the future but don't rely on it because it might not come.
