Message Name: I stand corrected then

In Reply To: formerly represented by KLA. Maybe you've heard of them. I negotiated a specific provision in my contract which indicated a 3% commission on certain lower-paying jobs. That you or people you know wouldn't have the sense to do so means nothing. What's more, I have friends who are making huge money, and they're happily paying 10% to Kenny. You might want to actually be sure of yourself before making it sound as if though you are.
Message: there are at least a few idiots who "happily" pay 10% to an agent. Just like there are people who happily throw money in the trash, I guess. I was repped by KLA too, and don't know of any of his big names who pay more than 6%. I can't imagine Kenny agreeing to 3% either, but hey, if you say so...
