This is a good point, but there is another side to it as well.  I think
	that units with professional skills (such as construction-1, or
	ship building-1) should be able to earn more from their WORK (well
	you may have to be in a coastal province to earn more from shipbuilding).

These are pretty universal skills, and if units are being paid more
	maintainance due to their possession of these skills, then they should
	be able to to use them to make money too.  I'm not saying they should
	be better than entertainment or other 'pure' money skills, but they
	should enable you to earn more from WORKING.

I suppose the responce to this is 'assist someone and get them to
	pay you'.  Well surely there are non players out there (about 4000
	odd of them in Drassa...).  They need houses too.

This is especially important now that units ASSISTing in shipbuilding
	and construction tasks have to have at least level 1 in those skills.
