I was implying I am a bargain, but feeling ripped off would not be anything like what I feel, that was totally your inference (as the reader you infer, as the writer I imply). I feel privileged to work with the young- I wish more people felt that way. But since most people care about money, money will be needed to attract better people. Unless you think those fancy law firms pay big bucks to get mediocre people.... Usually money gets you quality- in food, in clothing, in jewelry, and in employees (and in almost everything else- religion might be an exception- thought to look at Saint Peters you have to wonder.)I find I can only work part time, and I spend a lot of money on my classes. For my BA in Biology (summa cum laude) and my JD in law, I am paid 22k a year (gross). It's a labor of love, and I do love it. But I can't see too many people like me going into the profession in California- since teachers can't buy houses even on the full salary in expensive markets."
