Okay, let’s tackle this. So Kellee has 11 years of experience in banking, which is a good amount of time to build expertise. She’s in a relatively niche area like small business lending and commercial lending, which can command higher rates. However, she’s in a smaller bank in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, which might limit her earning potential. I’m estimating her rate based on national averages for banking professionals with similar experience. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual salary for loan officers in the US is around $62,000. However, this doesn’t directly translate to hourly rates. Assuming a standard 40-hour workweek, that’s around $150 per week. For a 11-year veteran, I’d add a premium, maybe 25% to 50%. That brings us to $187 to $225 per week. However, since this is an estimate and she’s in a smaller bank, I’ll cap it at $75 per hour, which is a relatively conservative estimate.
