Does anybody literally pay themselves for work
I'm bad at hiring contractors.
I'm working on fixing that.
Often I tell myself "I could save X number of dollars by doing work myself".
My dayjob translates into about 40/hr, so I figure if I hire someone at $50/hr I'm m breaking even (20% tax savings)
I'm thinking about literally moving $50 from the my business to personal account every time I do an hour of hammer swinging.
Im frugal, so this might entice me to stop doing too much work myself.
Does anybody else do this?
