Issue #13307: Gold doesn't show up in trainer inventories after training when trainer can be a follower

 
Trainers that can be followers do not receive gold after training a skill with them.
It seems that this was a bug fix on a exploit in Skyrim.

Feandal of Riverwood can be taken as an example.

Clarification as to why I think this is an issue:
To my experience, items that are given to NPC's (excluding quest items) are stored in the NPC's inventory after the trade (excluding vendors).
Also, other trainers that aren't followers do receive the gold you give them for their service (training).

This makes it inconsistent and therefore I presume a compensation is needed.

Suggestion on actions to change this fix (implemented in 1.26 of USKP):
Alter the script of followers on the location where the follower opens up his/her inventory then include the following check;

<pre class="_prettyXprint _lang-nocode">
-- Your code
if NPC.CanTrain then
Remove gold from NPC's inventory

-- Old code
Show NPC's invetory
</pre>

I hope I've made my suggestion clear and look forward on reading your response.

Sadly, I had to repost this issue because it was removed and my account was deleted.
Please, bear with me.

PS: Sorry for the formatting, I don't really know why it has an extra space on each enter.

We had a database glitch earlier, apparently some data was lost in the process. You might have been caught up in that, our apologies.

This exploit was fixed for exactly the reason you're reporting - the NPC would then have the gold you JUST paid them for training, allowing you to simply take it all back (and more if they had it) and effectively get trained for free. This is not something we're going to revert out.

from the discussion on the forums, the suggested improvement sounds like this:

the trainers would accept gold, but it is secretly removed from then if the player opens their inventory.
thus you can not just simply take it from them, but it is still possible to steal it.

i don't know if this is possible to script or anything, but is does sound like a viable solution, and in my oppinion like a small improvement on the current USKP fix.
