How much do "consultants" get paid to give advice on "how to get a job"

[IdaBriggs]

that pays HOW MUCH? Just curious.

1. Obviously enough

and it's probably more than what you would get for the job they're giving you advice for.

2. I paid $1000

in 1975. That was worth it since my income jumped $6,000. Why are you asking?

3. I was thinking of the POLITICAL consultants who advise our candidates.

How much money do they get to advise people on getting a job that pays what -- $150K? $225K?

It makes me realize how corrupt and sycophantic the system has become.

:shrug:

4. Ohhhhhhhh, the $225K

isn't the issue. The money they get from the corportocracy and US treasury is the prize. OMG, the guys live well. The consultants make most of their money not 'consulting' but placing media buys.That's BIG money on a national campaign.

5. So, they get kickbacks from media buys? That sounds stupid.

Why would a candidate pay "extra" money for media buys? :shrug:
