A variant on this that I've seen proposed is: find a (medical student | apprentice plumber | law student | etc) that you think is talented and honest. Pay his/her way through school and provide enough money to get them comfortably set up. They now owe you free service for the rest of their career in that field.

- lolcraft 17y agoSo, you've basically proposed slavery, then?
- abalashov 17y agoYes, unless there are some hard (and reasonable) limits to the extent of free service defined.
