I've never thought of laundry as such a time sink to pay someone to do it, but really it all comes down to this:
Is it worth $35 to $40? To save 1.5 to 3.5 hours of my time
Why is it most folks around here push so hard to retire or be able to only work part time, but when it comes to paying someone else to do things for you rather than doing it yourself they take so much shit? I don't think I'd pay for laundry, but cleaning, changing oil, etc; I definitely would.
It comes down to income, as a salaried employee I make something like $50/hr, much less per hour some weeks.... There are many routine chores I dislike more than work. If I can pay someone less than my hourly wage to do these things so I have that time back to do do things I enjoy, how is that not extremely "mustachian" in nature? I have basically elected to reduce my working hours and wage to do something more rewarding with my time.
