We should do some math on how rewarding the expeditions really are, assuming one uses pennies to buy supplies, and the rewards are worth their selling price in the Bazaar. There's some amount of luck involved so maybe we can calculate an expected range or some sort of an average from our examples.

I did some quick calculations once with the Thieves Cache expedition and it seemed that to get mention-worthy, effort-worthy profit one would have to be quite careful with their Supplies/quite lucky. Or maybe move on to bigger expeditions once they get the chance? I don't think I've gone that far yet, are the bigger ones more fun?
