Charge a decent rate and get more work - that's your best investment in yourself, rather than being overpaid now.
If a major label asks you to mix something, you should personally pocket at least $1000 before additional costs.
The big mix deities get 4k a track (or sometimes more) as their personal fee, then sometimes rent their own gear back to you for another grand, then you have to pay for the studio time on top of that. They all ask for a point on the record as well, which they often get. It's easy to spend 10k per song when mixing with those dudes.
