I was thinking of firing a client from my business. The client is so painful that it's not worth our time and money. He goes on long meetings even after setting the prior expectations of everything, kills our time, pays less, increases or decreases our services with short notice, and so on. The only concern is I will lose some recurring money every month.

Let me know your thoughts and experience on this.
