thats kinda how its supposed to work. people learn to do something well and you do the thing you are good at and hire someone to do the stuff you have not learned to do well. It still blows my mind the old tv shows with the milkman, mailman, tv repairman, phone repair man.
Yeah but what I meant was that it gets to a point that it’s already too expensive to throw money at it that it’s better to learn to do things yourself. For example, a floor tile detached in my kitchen and it pulled up the four tiles around it. Since the tilework existed before I bought the condo and it’s quite old, I instead had the entire living room and kitchen re-tiled, all for $200 (not including materials). If it was in the US for example, I probably would’ve just tried to replace just the 5 tiles by myself.
