At the ripe age of 71 I have broken down and use a hired hand one or two Saturday mornings a month for 4 hours. I wish I had done this 10 years ago. As a matter of pride I would figure out how I could do tasks my myself that would normally take 2 or more people. While I saved money, i burned up my time. I would sometimes spend many hours on a job that should have been done much sooner. Now I set those tasks aside for the Saturday morning that I have help available.

If there is one thing the Wizard of Oz has taught me, it is not to trust school teachers on bicycles.

That sounds like a good plan.
I am 72 young and I guess we feel we can do it and its good for us.
I realise if we have the personality that expects progress, hired help could be great.
