Perhaps, but that would be exactly valuing the extra free time over the pure amount of cash, which is a counterargument to your "solved by money" idea. I would take "$60,000 and a 3 day week", but "solved by money" suggests you should take "100,000 and a 5 day week".
60k for 3 days a week is exactly the same as 100k for 5 days a week.
Tried this a few months back.. didn't work :(
Haha the length of time to complete projects would go through the roof, so that would never work here.
