I have known many "professionals" who make a lot of money who don't have the sense to come in out of the rain. I have seen all kinds of qualifications on paper and the holder of the paper is clueless. Then I have seen individuals who just know what they are doing who make no pretense either way. It's up to you to determine who is who and who will work for what.
Lawyers for one. A Doctor charges 150 for 10 minutes in the office, so 150x6 is 900 per hour. I value my time at 1000 per hour as I use 20% as a rule of thumb for overhead, such as lawyers and cpa types. Expenses must be paid out of these figures of course but you never said net.
I worked for a guy who was a tomato wholesaler. Fancy spread. All glass manse overlooking south Birmingham. His and hers matching long nose roadsters. I was impressed by tomatoes at that point.
Sounds like a dream-come-true for me! Wonder if they started out with a dinky backyard greenhouse like I'm doing. I'm wanting to have a greenhouse/nursery for a career.
To me, a professional is someone who has had plenty of experience in their field; take Chuck for an example. He's grown veggies for 50 years! Now is that a professional gardener or what!
