The older I get the more I've started to structure my ideal of being comfortable as meaning "my time is more valuable than my money." Whereas I used to change my own oil or absolutely refuse to pay a delivery fee on take out, now I recognize that it's more important to me to save that time than that money. Especially when it comes to things I could do, but a professional could do in a matter of hours to my days/weeks of work (I'm looking at you drywall finishing).
