[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious, does anyone else think this is a little illogical?

Cleaning is a really good workout if you do it right. It has the added benefit of being extremely satisfying. And when you clean your own house, it promotes pride and joy in your home.

But a lot of wealthy people hire others to come and clean their home once a week or so, and then spend large sums on gym memberships, exercise gear, and workout classes. I mean, if you have money to burn, why not, but if you cleaned your own home you could probably cut back on how much you have to workout to stay in shape. A thorough, top to bottom, clean of our house offers great cardio and strength training. And can take a few hours, so good for endurance too.

Same thing with landscaping. [b]Gardening is pleasurable[/b], enables you to spend time outside, can be a form of fitness (pruning and weeding and hauling dirt or mulch definitely builds my muscles), and is something to be proud of. Why pay someone to do it when you could do it yourself and it's actually good for you?

Gardening is pleasurable? This is crazy talk.[/quote]

I live in a middle class neighborhood where most people do their own yard work, and it’s clear many people don’t enjoy it. I love gardening so my house usually looks nice. [/quote]
