Not sure this is something you can quantify, it might take me 80 hours of study time to pass a certification, were you can do it in 60 hours. I might make $65 a hour where as you $40. Then there the question what you earn, Yes, if I make 100k a year, I could say working 40 hour work week, 52 weeks a year, I make $48 a hour, but if I think it in terms of earning 100k a year, 365 days in a year, 24 hours in a day, I only make $11 a hour. It a incorrect assumption to say a Auto Mechanic charged $80 a hour to fix your car, to then assume he make $166k a year, based on a 40 hr work week, since not every hour he's working is billable hours. Another comparison would be a prostitute, a typical going rate is $300 a hour, so one can assume they are making over 600k a year, but in reality the "average salary for a street walker is around 28k a year, when you account for all the time they are waiting around for clients.
