A friend just reported this to me. He took a private ski lesson at Christmas from an certified ski instructor at Lionhead/Vail Ski School. (Vail Resorts) He paid $925 USD for a full day private lesson. He was given a nice instructor who he felt comfortable with, no problem there. He learned that the instructor made only $19.70 per hour or about $128 USD for teaching a lesson. Corporate GREED at its finest.

What do you think it costs to run a ski resort?

And your friend paid? Sounds like a one percenter. See? Two can play at that game.

Did that include the parking fees? Rental car? Want lunch? A hundred bucks for the 2 plate pork chop special? The dollar isn't worth much and they don't pay much...lol...Generally the guy doing all the real actual work gets the least.
People will pay thousands just to go to amusement parks for 2 days.
