Other Voices: Links for 8/14/08
Posted by admin in Other Voices
From the PF blogs:
I just don't understand the DC housing market. How can people live here, save and have kids all at the same time? Unless you really are a K Street lobbyist raking in the dough, it's nigh impossible to live here and raise children all at the same time. (But is my dream of San Francisco any better? Hardly.)
I've noticed a disturbing new trend with some PF Bloggers – the deletion of dissenting comments to skew the discussion in favor of the authors point of view.
This is also a primary reason I don't have ads on my blogs, bloggers become "slaves" to the income from their "masters" and anything that interferes with the master/slave income relationship (i.e. reader comments) becomes a target for deletion or redaction.
I made $120 for one hour of work last week.
On Tuesday, I participated in a neuroeconomics study at a nearby university. For sixty minutes, I lay inside an MRI scanner while answering questions about money. When I had finished, the researchers paid me $120. In cash.
I admit that with the four hour round-trip and the half hour of wait time, my hourly rate drops to something nearer $20, but that's still not bad.

Thanks for the link Justin!
