The rewards of research

So one of the benefits(?) of being on the postgraduates mailing list is receiving regular offers of money for being a research subject. The latest one was rapidly followed up by an appeal for people to stop volunteering - the researcher had managed to recruit enough subjects willing to have a plastic tube (for anal manometry) inserted up their backsides - for £50. 
The going rate for an EEG seems to be just £8 though.
