Rates are going high, thanks to inflation.  
300 is going 450
400 is going 550

But the pimps and promoters have families too. So they keep
100 going 200
150 going 300

Rent is going high so
Managers keep  
100 going 300

At the end, the actual body that does the work retains  
$75 to $200 only.

All the superjohns here are pimps or promoters or managers and they are the frequent REVIEWER

Lets not forget what they do to providers..

I might be in the minority category but I haven't raised my rates since 2018 and I don't have any plans on doing so.  
I know that the economy is hitting everyone hard.  I would rather see you for a rate that you can afford rather than be totally cut from your budget like cable TV or People Magazibe.  

We can make it through this mess together.  We're gonna need a much escape over the next 4 years as possible.  So let's have some fun and forget about our troubles for a while!!!

Take your political position to the politics board.

Because I said that we need to stick together and focus on fun over the next 4 years? You've got to be kidding me.  Touchy much? You don't even know what side I'm on but you'd have to be living under a rock not to know that it's going to be a wild ride for the next 4 years no matter who you voted for.

Call it what you want, but the underlying message Betty eluded to is that the current unsettling of a consistent economy will affect this hobby.
For those of us with portfolios and investments, and paid on the bottom line of business, it’s a time to question expense’s. The luxury of spending a significant amount of money on the hobby for me will be put hold until the markets settle and recover. And I suspect that may be a long time.
That said, I appreciate Betty’s positivity and wish everyone invested in enjoying and participating in this hobby the best.
