Serioulsy, I have been shocked at some of the wages drawn by the Vulcan to the Sky Trust people. As a Director of a charity organisation myself, that affects thousands of pilots in the UK, I draw no salary and only accept a free buffet lunch for my time - the dozen or so Directors are also the same. I also used to give up my weekends for free when flying for the BBMF.
Take a look at this graphic from 2009/10 -

The annual wage bill for the Vulcan to the Sky trust was an 'eye watering' £750,000 - yes, three quarters of a MILLION quid. That was at 2010 prices so it is probably nearer to a whole MILLION now. That is why the 'begging bowl' went out to all of the enthusiasts pre-season each year!
As of 2014 there were actually about 32 employees with a combined wage bill of £760,000.
So an average of less than £24K, doesn't sound shocking or eye watering to me.
