I found a guy that I was paying $8/hr from India. I make >$40/hr I would spend 1-2/wk writing out specs. I would get 10-20hrs/wk in coding. Could I have done the same code in about 8-15 hours probably(mostly due to communicating what you want to another person), but I was still getting way better bang for my buck than doing it myself. We both had access to bitbucket got the code uploaded every week to test. Were there frustrations absolutely. But, it's hard to beat 5 to 1.
