PAY FOR GOOD GRADES

WOULD YOU PAY A STUDENT FOR EVERY "A" THEY GOT???

It used to be that students worked hard in school and tried to get good grades . . . because it was what they were SUPPOSED to do. (--Plus, there's always the possibility of locking down a college scholarship.)

But I guess times have changed quite a bit, because last month, someone started a new website called GradeFund.com . . . which allows students to find sponsors who will PAY THEM for each "A" they receive in school. Seriously.

According to the website, GradeFund.com is, "a community-based revolutionary approach to student education financing that encourages academic success . . . [by] rewarding students for performing well in school."

(--Here's my issue: If you're a good student who gets good grades for your own satisfaction . . . then why should I pay you for it? And if you're a bad student who can only be bothered to work hard when someone's paying you . . . NO WAY!)(Time)

(--You can sponsor a student here . . .) http://www.gradefund.com/
