I do not think this is an outrageously high billing rate, I have seen
bigger bills being
paid for quite ordinary (although not always bad) business consultants.
So Mr. Burleson
is not selling himself too high (at least on European standards). Of
course, current low
dolar is helping him when billing rate is being converted to Euro.
