You Choose Your Price Point
We won’t ask you anything about your life, resources, or needs—it’s entirely up to you.
We only ask that you read and consider the following factors:
Income is not the same as wealth. Income is the amount of money you make. Wealth is passed down from generation to generation and usually takes the form of inheritances, land ownership, and/or earning power. We ask that you take into account not only your income but also your wealth when choosing your price point within our sliding scale.
OUR PRICE OPTIONS
-
UNDER-RESOURCED PRICE
20% off market rate + labor costs.

-
STANDARD PRICE
Market rate + labor costs.
May be right for you if you are struggling to pay off debt, build savings, or move away from living paycheck to paycheck, but still have access to a steady income and are not spending most of your time thinking about meeting basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, childcare, etc.

Every "well-resourced" purchase makes ONE "under-resourced" purchase possible.
