To my way of thinking, you have just explained that your free time has zero
'cost' (and your working time not much more than that) - which is fair
enough.  But for your time to have also zero 'value' suggests that there is
_nothing_ you would rather do than scan someone else's slides for GBP40 a
shot.  Maybe that _is_ what you mean!  

Theer's an old joke about economists/accountants/managers/politicians who
know the cost of everything but the value of nothing.  Oscar Wilde?

I'm not exactly paid a fortune at the best of times, and if it's a hobby,
essentially your time *does* have zero value.
