My $200,000 paper

We rarely quantify the time and therefore the cost of writing a high quality research paper. If we did quantify the cost of the research and writing a paper then maybe our Dean's would tell us to stop writing them immediately!

Writing the grant application 6 weeks = 15k
Three year PhD scholarship funded by grant (data gathering)= 75k
My involvement in supervision = 50k
Writing paper (m y time) = 30k
Revision and rewrites = 30k

Total= 200k

Working from the above my CV is worth at least $10 million. Some journal papers would cost a lot less and conference papers less still.
