I believe your time is worth because the knowledge you have and your ability to make the team better - not because you can code faster.
1. Have you just tried to delegate the work you do to free up a bit of your time?
2. Does your company has role like an architect or something? Where you do more design and code reviews and less of direct coding?
3. What will happen if you start working 30+ hours a week by declining meetings and moving things out?
Since you are financially independent, why not slow the pace yourself and see if where you can add the most amount of value for least amount of work?
