It could be a general problem. For collecting responses from high-income individuals the method faces the double-whammy of: (1) smaller number of potential respondents; (2) respondents are least willing to spend their time on such surveys (or the sites the survey-wall blocks).

Hmmmmm.
No, wait. Targeting is 50 cents a person, not 10. So it would be about $550. Still, though.
I did, a week ago:

Very interesting, thank you for sharing that!
The patterns in subpopulations seem to match general expectations. Very cool.
Almost no responses in the $100k+ incomes. I wonder if that's a general problem with the method?
