Stipend
Categories: Econ
A small amount of money that is usually in the parlance or context of academics being paid to research a pithy maxim.
"You get a flat fee of $1,500 and then a stipend of $300 a day to go dig around that cave in South Dakota, looking for relics from the alien landing party that was supposedly here 3 million years ago. Good luck, and don't get probed."
