Some of us charge large hourly wages for our services. Lawyers, therapists, personal trainers, consultants, salaried employees and so on. I guess I’m one of those people. It occurred to me tonight while I was playing TUG with the dogs –– what are my hourly wages for playing with my dogs? $250 an hour? $500 an hour, 1 hour minimum?

No, silly, you don’t get paid for playing with your dogs.

Yeah, but it’s the same YOU that is doling out that valuable information to clients.

No. Dogs get your attention for free.

Um, excuse me: my dogs are giving me that look….

[PS: Y’know, another great thing about dogs is they don’t have email.]

    How about starting a rental service?

    You might pick up a little extra income for a new Steinway Model B
