Not really an aspiration for me; more like a wise choice.
I aspire to being useful and skilled with tools, but I am safer in the short term, and richer in the long term, if I put down the hammer and pick up the checkbook.
Excellent way to put it.
These days, if I'm at least 90% sure I can do something without complications and it's not too back-breaking labor, I will still generally do it. If there's at least a 10% chance that I'll screw it up or something will go wrong (like a water pipe fitting replacement causing a leak behind the drywall) , I'll call somebody who knows what they're doing and who needs the money more than me.
That's been going up to around 98% for my rentals. Especially given that every time I go there to fix something for a tenant, they seem to take it as an opportunity to gripe about something else that's working perfectly fine that they want replaced. If I just send a guy, even at $100/hr, I think it ends up saving me money.
