Return to Question

I noticed in the M.Y. rules that it is fine for someone to answer his / her own question.

On a few occasions, I have posted a question that I already have an answer for. I usually don't like to be a "hog". If I post my answer immediately, it may discourage others from answering. Sometimes, other people's answers are better than mine, anyway.

Is there a recommended waiting period before I post my own answer, esp. if no one else posts any answer? Related to this, rather than post my own answer if there is no other, would it be more useful to post a bounty, instead?
