'''Transaction benefits''' is a new concept first coined by Dr. Howard Long to refer to the non-monetary satisfaction gained from providing a [[good]] or [[service]] to another.  In some cases the transaction benefit may exceed the monetary reward from the transaction, as in providing a good or service for free.

For example, a doctor finds satifaction of helping one's neighbor and the patient's acceptance of that love, and this satisfaction can exceed the value of the money paid for the care.  Due to declining pay and increased regulations, some primary care physicians can find that transaction benefits rather than money are the primary motive for continuing to work.
