Like in real life? Like in a real show? Cash can't buy talent. I like the idea because it is more like a show where you enter your best and go up against cash, collected material and yes, even talent.

I do not live by these places either but still collect. Like a real show, it just doesn't matter, you enter your best.

That makes a generalization that anyone with money has no talent.
Matt is correct in listing out all the valuable things a contest teaches us, I would add to his list good sportsmanship.
I personally believe that the more we make our styling contests like a real show, the better.
Thanks Matt for all your effort that really makes the contests what they are. Your thankless work and all your time is the blood of these contests and it is appreciated.
Three Cheers and rep for Matt...
