-I agree, I don't think he was paying the kids anything.
Possible he paid the parents some money.

-I think Epstein provided anything his customers wanted.

-Why would these rich guys keep coming back to the island?
If they were not paying him, didn't they get suspicious?
Wouldn't word travel that Epstein was running an extortion ring?

Of course maybe the rich are used to people doing things for free
to impress them.
