Do you think it is wrong for groups to charge people to do investigations? Why ?

Man this is a tough one Embarassed
well we all know this has cost us or at least some of us lots of money for equipment,travel expenses etc.

It would be nice to get money from doing this but think of it this way, being non-profit gives you the look of someone not trying to be a crook or someone trying to fake just to earn a living etc.We are generally trying to help the public,get answers for yourself and for the field.The thing is (usually) you cannot recreate the activity and at most times (from a skeptics point of view) could be blown off as "It was probably this"
OR "It was probably that"


I do feel as far as money goes that we should be compensated for Long distance travel, I mean come on..... you know if you get a local case you are going to be happy as hell to go and do it because of the thrill factor affraid

On our fliers,business cards etc it says "donations are accepted but not necessary, they will be used for travel expenses ,equipment for the field etc".

I'm sure I will screw up the wording on this one but, I'll post anyway.

The only way you can charge for an investigation is if you are a business or a professional. Professionals get paid for what they do, that is what they do for a living, so in a sense a business is a profession. Therefore I don't think anyone can charge for an investigation because there are no "Professional Paranormal Investigators"

EASY PUT, if its a long drive some cut costs on the gas would be appreciated but remember were providing a service, and were here to help these people, so there should be no charge at all, but donations and stuff is up to them... i agree with the man above THERE ARE NO SUCH THINGS AS PROFESSIONALS....

Plus if they did pay they are probably pretty certain they have a haunting and if you come up with nothing Im sure the clients would not be happy. To bounce off what CPR Mike said in order to have a business you have to have a business license. I dont think they have a business license for the paranormal although I havn't honestly looked into it.
