Of course, but that misses my main point - the synergy between your skill set, which maybe only you have in the whole world.
Let's say a company needs to do a task which requires deep knowledge of engineering, economy, and dessert cooking. They could get an engineer, an economist, and a cook, but finding a single engineer/economist/cook would be way more valuable to them - a single person can use all his knowledge combined, without having to share ideas with the other two, and without situations of the type "why didn't you tell me that before?" "I didn't think it was relevant".
