You can be pretty productive even with 70% of the language :) It is a common misconception that C++ is suitable only for game engines and similar domains. It is perfectly fine for applications domain as well.

Or even far less than that. I like to use it as C with lambdas and namespaces. Sprinkle in metaprogramming as needed. Even just not having to remember to call cleanup code thanks to dtors would alone be enough to sell me on it.
I once wrote a pure C project years back that made heavy use of complex numbers and 2D/3D vector math. At one point I got so fed up debugging my expressions under an endless parentheses-hell of `vadd(vmul(vadd(...), vadd(vmul(...))))` that I threw my hands up and changed the file extensions to .cpp just to use std::complex<T> and enough operator overloading to type vector expressions like a human being.
Honestly, I don't expect to find clients here. Fundamentally, you have to trust me to give me work. The amount of money doesn't really matter much to me.
