Golf Drug Rehab?
 
I couldn't help notice the ad for this rehab on the site. Not to knock the advertisers who help support this site but the thought of me trying to sober up with a golf club in my hands probably would of had me ending up in prison for beating someone or something up.

Likely a high end rehab facility. Many of them are like luxury resorts.

I've always heard rehabs are pricey but I just checked with a random golf club rehab search and was staggered by how much they exactly charge

To put it mildly the cheap one was 12,000 a month (Canada)

The expensive one was between 86,000 & 106,500 per week (Switzerland)

I didn't realise how high these places charge - Shows how much they care doesn't it

Altruistic ?

I respectfully disagree that treatment needs to be altruistic.

I don't know of many people who work for free.

My treatment was provided at market rates, and it worked.

It took me ~ 14-15 months to pay off my doctor, but I did.

I think we can all agree we love this site, but the pocher ads are pretty questionable,..

I'm a volunteer so I have no more idea than anyone else but I'm guessing without the sponsors to help defray costs this might not be a free site.

The fact we're free and we're here helping so many people is the bottom line for me.

Lets all go help someone struggling hey? :)

I agree! Though the ad bombardment is out of control recently. Can you speak to the ownership about this?

I use adblock plus and never see any ads. :)

What's a pocher ad?
