If you use it for work, I'd expect you have a (paid) developer account, therefore you got it for free.

Professionals using Xcode for work are by far the least likely to need to pay for Xcode 4. Hobbyists or free-software developers, on the other hand...

No hobbyist needs to pay for Xcode 4. You can use Xcode 3 for free, or you can pay $5 and use Xcode 4 without having to wait for and buy Lion, or you can just wait and get it free with Lion.
