PRO - TIP: Regardless of the amount that the 'Going Rate' actually is...
Pay them LESS than 'the going rate', then give them a little extra (ie make it up to the going rate) for a 'Job Well Done'...
That way they are still getting the money, but look at you as a generous boss who appreciates his workers - As opposed to a rich white guy who is trying to rip them off...
