Question

If Architects charge 10-15% of a house, then why is the national average salary around $60,000?

Answer 1

Probably because that's what the architectural firm charges.  The worker-bees doing the actual design work are paid much less.

Answer 2

yeah its simple...the workers dint get that much that they should get and the number of workers are more so the average goes down.
