Which of the following works well for you. I always pay professionals to get things fixed for me. I believe they do a far better than I would have done. How about you?

That depends on what kind of issues. For home repair, I rely on licensed repairman to do the job. For business, I think it's better to let the professionals to do tax reporting.

If I have my own business, I prefer to avail myself of the myself of the services of an accounting firm. Personally, I do not need someone to do things for me at present. I prefer to do it by myself.

I guess it depends on what I need fixed and what the problem is. For example, when I have a problem with my smartphone, I prefer to take it to a professional technician who can fix the issue for me as I do not have prior experience in terms of repairing a broken smartphone. When it comes to cleaning the house, though, I prefer to do it on my own rather than hire a cleaner since it is more convenient for me to do so. In addition, I enjoy cleaning my house because it is a relaxing activity for me.

It depends on the situation and issue. Efficient use of time is the main determining factor. If I am good and comfortable doing it, I will do it. Else I would pay a professional to get the quality work done. Moreover if it takes a lot of time abd effort on my part, I would rather outsource it to a professional and use my time in doing something else that is more productive.

If it's Something I can do or handle myself, I prefer doing it myself than paying someone else to do it. I feel it doesn't make sense to spend money on something I can do myself for free.
