Just look at the low IQs that come to fix things. Save your wallet and review how to youtubes before hiring out repair jobs.

I recently had my water heater replaced (around $2,000) and the guy that came was very pleasant and professional. He even came by later to make sure the water temperature was to my liking.

Yes, I could have done it myself by watching a YouTube video but I have plenty of money and I don't mind hiring people to come to my home to do things (and helping them to make a good living).

About the only think I like doing myself around the house is mowing the lawn and grilling food out on my patio. The whole handyman thing just doesn't appeal to me and I'm happy to hire out the pros.

It still doesn’t hurt to learn to be resourceful and do more things yourself.

Not only does it save money, it has survival value, even if one has money and can always afford to hire pros.

Especially when the SHTF.
