There's some areas where the trade off works. I hire a yard company that comes out to take care of my yard every single week, brings equipment, hauls of trimmings and otherwise does maintenance that would take a couple of hours a week for me to do myself. They show up with a team of 3-4 people for about $180 / month. We do something similar by hiring a house cleaning service that comes in every 2 weeks to do a heavy and thorough cleaning of our house for about $200 / month. That job would use an entire day of the weekend to do ourselves. It's not every little task, but if there's a market for it there are certainly some areas where you can buy your time back relatively efficiently. For $380 / month I buy back about 30 hours of my non-working time every month with those two services.
