I've heard several people say that you shouldn't do it for the $$ b/c you do the game and the participants an injustice if that's your only motivation for being out there. This is nothing new - it's just not sugar coated.
I support that people who umpire, including many of those on the forum who claim otherwise, do so because the money is necessary to them.
