But you said evaluating the cost as extravagant isn’t accurate. It is.

No matter how much you value your time over money, you can’t make that trade off of you can’t afford it. There is no greater luxury in life than paying people to do things that you don’t feel like doing.

I can’t cut my own hair, I could change my tires but don’t have the equipment or the space to do so, I can cook but I also don’t eat out for every meal. Most things we pay people to do, we need them to. Or at the very least, we lack much of the resources to do.

Not cleaning your own house is, without question, the ultimate luxury. Other than not wiping your own ass or dressing yourself, I can’t even think of a more unnecessary luxury item.

That’s not to say it is bad or that I don’t understand why you think it’s good value. But it pretty much defines an extravagant expense.
