It was slightly over $400/hr. The claim it was $5k/hr comes from the Berkeley guy who didn't include all the time she spent in his calculation. He either misunderstood or intentionally lied to make her look bad.
- jacques-noris 5y agoNo, the document states, that she gets 5000$/hr: “for two Four hour sessions at the rate of 5.000.00 per hour for q a total of 40.000$“
- throw242 5y agoThe “four hour sessions” are a deliverable. There is no mention of how many hours went into preparing for them. I was once paid 3,500 for a single 15 minute talk. It took me about 5 days to read various technical materials and condense them into an executive summary that could be delivered in 15 minutes. There were about 100 people in the audience. They got excellent value for money and I got paid reasonably for my research.
- op00to 5y agoYes, it’s $5,000 per hour, but that hour reflects a significant amount of time and work behind the scenes.
