Maybe, but it could be a question (in economic terms) of charging (for simuls) what fee the market will bear.Nick Grey wrote: Obviously [Gunsberg] was not charging too much for these over the years which is probably why he was bankrupt 20 years later.
Gunsberg was a serial debtor, constantly living beyond his means, This nearly cost him his naturalization papers, as detailed in my chapter about him in "Eminent Victorian Chess Players." This eventually caught up with him when he was older and his earning power much reduced.
