I'd agree with the former, but think
that the latter is not at all obvious...

I think it is obvious, on the grounds that big jobs tend
to be labour intensive (i.e. time consuming), which equates
to expensive if you pay. But most people who would even
contemplate a big job will be more likely to be able to afford
the money than the time, unless they're either retired or
exceptionally keen gardeners, both of which would place them
in the minority.
