Also did it as a favor. These are hard working folks who haven't had a vacation in 20 years, and didn't know where to start to plan one. They asked about compensation. I declined.

Fair enough but you can't project anything from those circumstances to a typical business relationship. I mean, if you want to dedicate your life to doing favors and it makes you happy then that's wonderful but the market will be an unending chain of hard working folks who haven't had a vacation in 20 years.
