This is it. People have to stop believing that paying staff is apparently a "waste of funds".

As a specialist in my industry, I don't work at schools and nonprofits, not because I don't want to, but because their pay is usually half of the industry average. It's sad. And you can't "donate your speciality" to these places either. Nobody wants a volunteer specialist.
