What's the minimum I need to earn freelancing to survive and thrive?

Monthly personal expenses: $[X]
Monthly business expenses: $[X]
Taxes to set aside: [X]% of revenue
Desired profit margin above survival: [X]%
Realistic billable hours/month: [X]

Calculate: (1) monthly revenue target to cover everything, (2) minimum hourly rate at my billable capacity, (3) how many clients at $[X]/project I need monthly, (4) what changes if I lose my biggest client ([X]% of revenue). Give me the rate to quote and the rate below which I walk away.

Paste it into Muse or any assistant. Blank fields stay as [brackets].
