There are two other aspects I can think of as well. One is that burnout in work. I don’t think I could work 2-4 hours more a week for years without massive diminishing returns. Volunteering building homes is a positive use of my time for others and help me not burnout so I can keep doing both! The other and more important is relationships. I could work more and get payed more (I’m salaried so I wouldn’t actually be payed more but hypothetically if I did) and donate that for someone to build homes but it changes the dynamic of relationship and I’m missing from it. I’ve advised people I’ve worked with and for on college, software, or even just how home loans work. And the fact I’m doing all this for free for them is meaningful for both of us, probably even more so than a mediocre handrail I added to the stairway
