Do It Yourself Or Not? Why Hire An Advisor
It?s a common misconception that it?s always less expensive to do it yourself. If fact entire industries have cropped up around the ?do it yourself? Myth! If you don?t believe me just drive around any area and look for the Home Depot or Lowes store. These stores exist and thrive because we have been told that we can save the expense of hiring contractors, carpenters, plumbers and electricians by applying a little elbow grease and doing the job yourself. But when you consider the price of the materials, and the price of the tools you need to buy to do it right, and the time invested not only in the project but often in redoing the project when you realized you did it wrong the first time, is it really worth it?
Treat Yourself To A $1000 Shopping Spree!
You?re in the mall with your husband or friend and are each given $1,000 to spend. The only restriction? it must be gone within one hour. You can do whatever you like with it!! Ready ? set ? spend!!!
If this sounds like something you?d love to do, then do it!! All you need is a note-paper and pen to record the details of the items you intend to purchase on your shopping spree. What?!? You don?t actually spend the money for this to be a terrific experience. It works best if it?s not pre-planned, so one day when you find yourself at the mall try it!! If you are going with your husband, you can decide to shop together with $2,000, or independently ? it?s your choice. The treat is in the process.
