I feel like this could be universal.

If you want to hire an experienced, production and value adding _______ be prepared to pay.

It's like the phrase "You don't pay a plumber to bang on your pipes, you pay them to know where to bang." (yes, that's from Suits)

Anytime you choose cost over experience you end up paying more than you would in the first place by the end.

Obviously there's exceptions to that, but if you're going to be cheap on a component or person that you need you will definitely regret it later.
