IF YOU WERE REFERING TO ME IN YOUR 1/20/04 POST I COCTRACTED W/THE LUMBEE TRIBE TO DO A STISTICAL ANALYSIS OF LUMBEE INDIAN STUDENTS IN NC 1997-01. UPON COMPLETION OF THE CONTRACT INCLUDING 4-2 HR. WORKSHOPS WITH THE EDUCATION COMMITTEE AND THE ACCEPTANCE BY THE COMMITTEE I SUBMITTED AN INVOICE TO THE TRIBE FOR MY FEE: $5,000.00 RESEARCH-ANALYSIS-7 COPIES-4-2HR. WORKSHOPS AND 15% EXPENSES=TOTAL INVOICE=$5,750.00. I CONSIDERED THE FEE A DIRT CHEAP FAVOR TO THE LUMBEE TRIBE AND COMMUNITY, SINCE MY STANDARD CONSULTING FEE IS $300.00/HR. + 15% EXPENSES. IF YOU CAN READ I SUGGEST THAT YOU WOULD TAKE TIME TO READ AND STUDY THE REPORT AND LEARN THE ACCURATE-FACTUAL STATUS OF INDIAN STUDENTS IN NC. I HOPE YOU CAN READ BETTER THAN YOU CAN WRITE AND I WOULD OFFER YOUR WRITING AS A PREFECT EXAMPLE OF OUR NEED FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF STUDENT SKILLS FOR ALL CHILDREN AND MANY ADULTS. I AM SAD TO SAY I RECEIVED A 1099 ON 3/1/03 FOR $5,750. FOR THIS AND IND FILING 03 FED AND NC TAX ON IT OF MORE THAN I MADE I LEARNED A VALUABLE LESSON: FOR $300./HR + %15% I WILL TEACH YOU THE LESSON. DISREGARD THIS NOTE IF YOU WERE NOT REFERRING TO ME. "WHY NOT THE BEST" KEEP LOOKING UP!!!!!!!!!!!
