Should you pay someone to do things for you?

Is it actually worth it to outsource as much of your chores as possible to open up your time to other pursuits? Or is menial chore work valuable in itself? Assuming you could afford to even entertain the possibility, which is not feasible for the majority of people.

If you knew you could monetize your free time in a profitable way, then sure. But otherwise you're better off just doing your chores yourself.

As is the case for many things, it depends.
