It seems the NPC’s don’t even need payment for teaching you skills any more. I know they are fucked up beyond rational thought… But I kinda liked being taught stuff up to a point. My starting NPC has so far taught me handguns to 22… And other stuff.

Can you teach me something? Sure, what? This. Okay, pay me. Right, here’s some nothing.  
_tick_  
You finish training Handguns to level 22.

Clean build off the repository as of an hour ago.

I’ve noticed this ‘bug’ as well, But it’s usually because you completed a mission for them, and it makes it so they ‘owe’ you quite a bit, But it has always ran out for me.  
I can usually get about 5k worth of training from people for killing their pre-dead mother.

At or around skill level 22 the cost was 5k+ per level already. I think I failed the npc quest even. Damn dogs.
