Jim VB<<Its not much different than a buyer's side real estate agent who works for nothing and gets paid only if his/her client buys a house (and then not from the buyer, but by the seller).>>
Ironically, it is not only different, but the polar opposite. I've pointed this out before. In all other commission sales that I can think of, the payment to the agent comes from the person collecting funds.
We live with a business model that collects a commission from the person disbursing the funds.
