(is teacher cost included in the 1gp cost) i put 2+2 and got 8  hire a  skilled  person cost 2 gp a day! (skilled teacher?)   so 1000  gold and 250 days required.. if modest? my sums =500gp teach 250gp training cost 250gp lifestyle cost.. + 250 days   but as well as accumulateign downtime.. you have the cost of paying the lifestyle up to that point as well??   but lets  say 1 Hero is a nobel.. last advenutre he got 50gp as his share..  he can no longer maintain the nobility lifestyle!   if a month passes between adventures.. but also hes not enougth downtime to the maintian life style actvity..      they could all live squaild and keep there gold.. just wondering if im over thinking?
