Default Re: Ethics question

Sounds like the certification costs $100 and comes with a worthless free textbook. What's so unusual about a certification test costing money? Someone has to write the test and administer it. If the textbook actually has value on its own, sell it on ebay.

People pay $100 or more for pieces of paper all the time. Ask anyone who's been to an NFL or NHL game lately. The value is in what the paper represents or allows you to do, not the physical paper itself.

Stealing is wrong, and lawyers/court costs/lost future earnings make it -EV.
