Limit Holdem can only be profitable with high stakes vs. no limit ?

ok, does anyone have an idea at around what stakes of Limit Holdem do you have to play to make a decent hourly rate something like $10-15/hour?

Don't know if about 4,000 hours is enough hours logged to have any meaning whatsoever but I played 3/6 limit which was the lowest game spread at the casino I went to (every now and then I would sit at a 6/12 limit table but not enough to be statistically meaningful) and I averaged $14/hour during that time (since I was brand new learning, I had some real swingy sessions for awhile also).

No clue at all how typical this may or may not be. I played like it was my job, going every day for at least 8 hours. Learned who other regulars were and how they played and learned to pick tables. The hourly rate average included monies won for things like "Aces cracked, win a rack" which added a bit to the figures.

Didn't get rich but it sure helped a lot to make ends meet.
