Great value in voluntary help

I was shocked to learn that a senior lawyer charges $2,000 an hour to look into the credit linked notes.
Adrian Tan, who help me in the credit linked notes, must have spent 100 or 200 hours in helping many noteholders. He earns nothing. Adrian was a lawyer and also a financial expert. The value of his advice and help must be worth more than the senior lawyer.
Adrian was able to spend so much time, as he is not working at this time. He spends his time managing his investments. But, if given the opportunity, he would be happy to be earn an income.
I hope that the noteholders who managed to receive 100% compensation should reflect on what Adrian Tan, and other volunteers, have done for them. I am not suggesting that they should pay the volunteers, but I want the noteholders to know that if they have used a lawyer for the same help, they would have to fork out $10,000 or more, just to get the same result.
