Penny was recently put out of circulation, but that’s not the end of her story.
In a world that has moved on, she’s the most unlikely kind of teacher: a retired cent with something to prove. Penny represents anyone who has ever felt overlooked. If anyone understands how it feels, it's her.
Not dwelling on her circumstances, she maintains an optimistic attitude, ready to teach children about financial literacy all while maintaining a smile. Penny reminds us that true value comes from what you contribute in the world, not from what others see. 🪙

two years ago I was charging less than a grand for a website.
this week I crossed $960k on Contra.
same hands and same tools but the thing that really changed is I stopped charging for my time and started charging for what the work is worth to the company.
took me way too long to get this however when you bill hourly you're basically punishing yourself for getting good, you spend years getting faster and cleaner and the reward is you make less for the same result which makes no sense.
and half the time you're designing for a company that's about to raise millions, you're a big part of why they look fundable in the first place. charging that by the hour like it's a favor never sat right with me.
so at some point you just say the number, not a random one though.
sit down, figure out what each thing is actually worth to you, write it down, then say it out loud without doing the nervous little discount thing we all do.
the pricing was never the hard part but believing I was worth it was and I'm still working on that some days, however the number's finally catching up to the work.
anyway, road to a million, one project at a time. the count's live on my Contra profile if you want to watch it happen.
Amazing!
He's cute, smart and addicted to his phone :( here's the mascotte we designed for Brainrot, which we will announce soon!
How did the engagement start for this project? I remember. seeing the founder share on socials about the app. Did you reach out or was it through Contra?
Put this together for anyone having issues getting into the challenge! Hope this helps!
This is so helpful. Thank you!!
