Quit my last freelance gig immediately after being haggled down - verdict / advice needed

Hey cool cats,

I've been freelancing for close to a year now and the last client I was serving tried to haggle me down to £900 for one month's worth of work despite me having to work UK and SF hours. (Podcast bookings, LI socials, founder ghostwriting, client management and more)

A few friends of mine have said just stopping all work immediately was irresponsible especially in this market but I feel that the amount offered, for time and effort simply not worth it (plus I have savings so I'm not too bothered)

They haven't paid me despite haggling me down LOL and they're not UK based so naturally no recourse and I'm not desperate to chase

For the hivemind - Is it better to just keep working next time? This space is rather small so I don't really want to ruin relationships either, how do you all navigate this?
