It does tend to keep laziness and lack of effort from breaching the wall. 

I went in, fixed drywall, painted walls white, paint cabinets, corrected floor slope and put down hardwood.

From working on Wall Street to just diving in when working a 9-5 job and educating themselves tirelessly at every given opportunity...
