No! You don't want to do this! You want to be payed what your time is worth. Please understand, we have a precious commodity. LD. Not everyone has it. It is time to use it to our advantage. These people make 7 figure incomes studying us. And they offer $25 to you for all your time and or a couple hours of tutoring. Supply and demand, basic economics clearly indicates the rarer the item or service the more one can charge for it as it isn't readily available everywhere. So considering what they are making off of these studies and all theiur use of them and the money from speaking engagements etc... Paying us so little is unethical and in my opinion immoral.We need a union.... Because we are getting screwed. Amagine making $500 dollars for each portion of their test.... When you go to the store do you say to the guy at the counter "Wow, nice pack of cigarrets I will give you 14 cents for them...." NO. Ofcourse you don't. You pay what *he* charges for them. Why are *THEY* setting our rates?! This is taking advantage of us cheating us... and it is unethical and immoral.
