[QUOTE="TacomaJD, post: 711485, member: 1780"] There are reasons a lot of people don't do a lot of stuff themselves when referring to self employed and others that have great responsibilities with work. At some point, a man's time is worth more than what it costs to pay someone else to do some stuff for you. Running into a little bit of that myself. I don't hardly have **** for free time anymore. Every now and then I have a whole free Saturday, but most the time its that I have a free Saturday night and maybe half a day or possibly all day free on Sunday, but most sundays are spent catching up on things around the house and doing my own homework. So when we go to remodel the wife's house to get it ready to rent, I'd love to have the time to dive in and learn a lot of it myself, but we'll probably hire a carpenter to do most all of it. I fix little things that tear up on the one rental she has now, just replaced an electric cooktop over there Friday morning before work, but we had some mold pop up as a result of cracked and leaking windows that have been left overlooked in a bedroom there. The room had to be gutted with new carpet and sheetrock, paint, etc. Hired a carpenter because no way in hell either of us have the time to do it =$2,440. Ouch. Wife works anywhere from 40-55 hrs a week, carries Weston to his ball practice and games 3 or 4 nights a week. I work 40 hrs a week, go to school, and we both try to handle responsibilities with the 2 rentals we have going now. She helps Weston with his homework every night while I'm at work, I keep 3 yards mowed that total around 4-5 acres. She is a tightwad and has trouble turning money loose to pay someone to do something we could probably do ourselves, but **** me, I'm getting tired of working what feels like 24/7.
