[quote=Anonymous]I think the only thing that’s weird is that you don’t seem to value your time. Our income is high and DH bills we’ll over 1K an hour as a lawyer. Obviously that’s not what he brings home but it puts things into perspective - he should not be doing things around the house that he doesn’t enjoy if they can be easily outsourced. Far better to pay someone 40 dollars to mow the lawn, for example - and certainly far better to pay someone to paint (professionals almost always do a better job anyway). Unless, of course, it’s a task you or your DH enjoy. My parents have a NW of well over 10M but in their retirement really enjoy making a game out of how cheaply they can live. They own their (very nice) house so they eat like half a can of tuna for lunch. It’s quirky and unnecessary but they enjoy it and it takes them back to their roots (they grew up lower middle class). It’s all about what you enjoy.[/quote]
