I don't understand how we can be on a forum dedicated to Mr. Money Mustache and people don't understand why forum members don't condone maids. Mr. Money Mustache doesn't condone maids, and his articles are what have brought us together, so of course most of us will agree with him. Use your money however you'd like, but don't argue against wasting money on a forum full of mustachians. We will just give you some basic math.
Lets say you spend $300/month on maids, if you were to do this work yourself, you'd be able to save an extra $3,600 per year, and need $90,000 less in your retirement accounts to sustain yourself when you retire. Lets also assume you currently have $500,000 in retirement accounts, make $100,000/year, are currently only saving $40,000/year. This would mean you need $1,500,000 to retire. You make the one simple change of doing your cleaning yourself, and you then reduce the amount of years you have to work from 25 more years to 20.8 years, reducing your working career by over 4 years.
You'll also be taking on more risk by being lazy and not doing things yourself, as the more people/things you are dependent on, the more risk you are taking on. It's like ERE says, if you are a master of all things, can do everything yourself, then you're almost guaranteed never to be broke. You could lose your job, make a bad investment and lose all your money, the stock market could crash, etc. You would still be fine because you can do it all.
Lets not forget the fact that if you have a maid, your children are more likely to be useless and spoiled pieces of s*** that everyone hates.
