What I meant was, it’s good to tell people about the benefits of trusteeship. It’s also good to think about how that compares to other work. I think the quick calculation you did at the beginning shows that really well.
But trying to quantify the hourly benefit of trusteeship in general is like trying to quantify the hourly benefit of having a job in general. Some jobs are worth £3 per hour and some are worth £300. Rather than trying to calculate the average value, it’s better to find ways to pick the best jobs, or the best donation opportunities, or the best trusteeships.
So I really liked the idea of the article, and found a lot of it useful, but I would have suggested spending more time on figuring out which opportunities are the best rather than building a model estimating an average value.
You should definitely keep posting your thoughts! Take this not as ‘advice on what to post’, but rather as ‘advice on what to spend time thinking about (if you want to help me understand the pros and cons of bring a trustee)’.
