    during the long learning curve, one is usually grossly underpaid and sometimes scammed and or cheated.

    See, that’s the issue on such sites. Posters want a whole (e.g. e-commerce) project done for $100 because, “it won’t take long” and then challenge your quotes with “well, I can get someone in bum|f*ck|land to do it for $100…”. A game I don’t want to play.

    And sticking around and building a rep for a year is difficult when such sites have lots of scammers and sock accounts actively challenging you to make you look bad and their other alt accounts look good.
