Do you know what a freelancer is?

You don’t make tax contributions for them. They bring their own hardware and usually software unless otherwise agreed.

The rest of the stuff is just a laundry list you made up to try and blow costs way past what they actually could be if you’re prudent. Come on

Stop giving the guy horrible advice. IF you think throwing some freelance devs with no business support/product/UX support is going to help him, you are so mistaken. Trying to rebuild an existing complex software system that handles hundreds of millions in revenue is not going to be an easy task. You are going to put the man into a corner and ruin him. Jesus.

He has his own brain, some advice based on actual experience is not going to ruin him. Please don’t be so dramatic
