Does paying for your own type-rating with no guarantee of a job count? You could scrape past the LST at your own cost only to fail the base training within the allocated time and end up with no type rating or job. If you do pass these hurdles does working on a reduced salary during line training, and having to pay all your own expenses, count as paying to fly.
If so I think you'll find the net is wider than you surmise, but stealthily.
