<<  How
 can a golf pro charge $125 for an hour and a scuba
 insrtuctor only make $40 per student for a 5 week
 course (48 hours of work approx). >>

The answer to this is simple. Its called supply and demand. There is a larger 
supply of scuba instructors than the demand of would be students. On the 
other hand there are fewer golf pros to teach the up and coming want to be 
golfers. Also, the last time i looked, golf was a lot more popular with the 
masses than scuba. Go figure !
