    It depends. If I am working for someone else my time is expensive. But if I am not working for them ie days off then my time is alot less. I can't afford to pay myself what my employer pays me so I consider the adventure payment enough. If I could work overtime instead of scrounge lead then I could aford to pay more for it. But that is not always the case and I tend to enjoy scrouging and my days off. What else would you be doing on your days off anyway?
