Generally a good rule of thumb, but doesn’t always apply. For example, if you intern for a search fund looking for a first acquisition, that is most likely going to be unpaid. You’ll learn a lot and build up sweat equity that might come in handy later on. Also, unpaid internships will not ask much of you, as they are legally limited to what they can ask you to do.
