Greg,

My apologies. I didn't mean to indicate there was any extra involved here. I typically have to travel anywhere from 75 to 250 miles to teach. The $25 normally doesn't even break even for me. I normally put from $25-$75 of my own money towards a class I teach. My last class basically covered materials and gas. I paid for my own hotel. Yet, even then, I seem to get a LOT of push back even for that modest fee. When I mentioned sending people to this link it was totally tongue in cheek for those that complain about the class taking too long and costing too much. Covering flight and hotel costs is totally reasonable.
