I guess I thought it would be great experience for someone right out of college. As I said before I would give them everything they need and cover the costs of food and the like, I'd even give them my house cleaner. So I guess I thought that was the trade off.

In my area, the going rate is about 65 per day. A fraction of my pay would still be around 600 a week (and I'll pay them cash) so I guess I thought that was good.

When I worked as a councilor 600 a week was my take home pay. and that wasn't too long ago.
