Astrid - i think it's 50k TURNOVER, not 50k income. so 50k retail value not just commission...
I was using retail figures. My commission on something like that is substantial. Would take 8 good parties a month, so 2 a week, preferably 3 to ensure good figures with catalogue sales to bump up the dud ones. I would be getting over $20k a year just in personal commission.
