I'm not making a distinction of how valuable a particular piece of work is, just that work in general is valuable and should be valued such that whoever is employed by it should be able to be sustained by it. If a person desires work but doesn't value it high enough to sustain a person whose time is wholly consumed by it, I would question the necessity of that piece of work. If it's not critical to your business maybe it shouldn't be done. If it is critical then it sounds like it's worth the compensation.
