I had 3 interns and paid all of them :) not much but still. They actually didn't know anything :) so I just had them so they could learn. That's actually the only reason I took them.

This is it, It's all about money.

Well, yes! it's: "why should I pay someone who actually has nothing I want, so that he can learn from me" :). They've asked me if they could learn and I paid for the office, the food and the by law defined amount of money for an internship in Austria we've got those :). I don't see why that's bad ? :)

When I did internships I worked for food and a place to sleep and after that I worked for a public transportation ticket and coffee. Maybe you're right but those shitty jobs opened the doors to better jobs and now I actually can choose what I want to do.

The intention is the thing that counts, If I've would've used my interns to do anything productive that I needed, not just taught them what they've wanted to know. I would've had cheap labor, so I had expensive students .... thankful students and the thing I gained is friendship not money.

Still I see your point and as mentioned I've worked in companies which, speaking financially, screwed me over. Although I did learn a lot and I still appreciate it.
