It really depends. In IT (where VC is king) it is really hard to compete on a monetary level. On the other hand, benefits are pretty good - healthcare, time off, sick days etc. Also, having a direct say into how your business functions is a pretty huge benefit, in my eyes.

In other industries (repair, baking, house-cleaning) I'd say it pays a lot more than average.
