10 years ago my time was billable at $200/hr of which I got $100, at
my second job.
Turns out the time you get back with a shorter commute (to the first
job) pays for itself really fast
at the scales involved.

These days, I have no commute at my job, nor any way to bill any such numbers,
so the math is different again.
