Alright I just posted my first *job* on some outsourcing website.
Candidates will help me make up some math worksheets, for starters. I listed the job at $3.50 per hour and got 9 applications right off the bat.
I haven't had a chance to see who responded yet but really, what is my risk to even hire all of them on a trial basis? A couple hundred bucks???
Of course Tim Ferriss and all the upstarts making coin on the web have been extolling *outsourcing* for a few years now.
I just did give it a whirl because recently I heard about guys paying $2-$3 an hour for *great workers* from the Philippines.
I'll let y'all know how it goes, of course. See also:

Slave labor?
It's not really *slave labor*.
20 years ago...that is what teenagers used to work (in Massachusetts).
And it's not ridiculous to say that these countries are only a couple decades behind, prosperity-wise.
I hired one guy for $3.33. But he hasn't started the work yet!
