[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, definitely a rich people problem.
I don't know, an assistant just seems unnecessary.  "send my personal mail", "move money between personal bank accounts", "coordinate refinancing" -- Those are all very personal and somewhat private things.  And planning vacations?  That should be a fun, rewarding thing for you and your partner/family to do together.
Your nanny can schedule playdates and be there for repair people. 
It takes 2 minutes to make a dinner reservation and to schedule a lunch.  
Sending gifts and writing thank-you notes aren't a daily or even weekly occurrence and would be entirely impersonal for someone else to do for you- why even do it?
I'm not trying to be completely rude, I just think it's many very tiny things that are easily do-able, but maybe they are just adding up and you feel overwhelmed?[/quote]

I agree, you are probably a procrastinator, this is why all these things pile up and seem so overwhelming, unless you are some sort of a socialite and have just too many special lunches, dinners, trips, and numerous unmanageable correspondence.  I am not being judgmental here, I am a procrastinator myself and I feel for you, I realize though that these things that overwhelm me is my own fault and that people who are organized and get stuff done right away little by little, make do just fine and don't feel any pressure.
