Good point Kris. That is a good lesson. The inverse, however, is no matter the value you place on yourself you can’t expect others to honor it. The market rules apply always (-:

I would love to teach math at the college level but I can’t afford the pay cut!! One lesson that I did not learn in school is that if you place a low value on yourself do not expect the “world” to raise it.
