...Business School is where the magic (i.e. the payout) really happens—my favorite study was an Appprentice-esque brainstorming session, where for $20, I spent an hour with three other people trying to think up an advertising campaign for an imaginary brand of flavored water. Another time I received $23 for negotiating a contract with another student...
