Fee

A fee is the price one pays as remuneration for services, especially the honorarium paid to a doctor, lawyer or member of a learned profession. As part of their mystique, traditional professionals in Britain received a fee in contradistinction to a payment, salary, wage or mere money, and would often use guineas rather than pounds as units of account.
