Very low bounty! Answering this question would take about 20 minutes. An offer of $2 means that you are expecting an expert to work for half the minimum wage!
It’s even less than that as the website gets 20% of it! And minimum wage is higher in other states. Unfortunately, this user wants to do all his questions for very cheap.
You should offer at least $10 for this kind of questions.
