That's seriously overpaying![/QUOTE]
I think you have to factor in the time it take to find 60 willing sex workers. The researcher most likely has to interview hundred if not thousand just to find these 60 sex workers. For the data to be valid, the researcher might have to leave out the data from those they deemed to be lying. Most of the grant will go toward the researcher salary-that is how most grant are, salary for the researcher.
