Time vs Money

Time vs Money - that is the question. For sure, one can spend a heap of time doing a job for yourself, but is it really worth the small saving in money? Usually not. Usually you could have earned far more in the time you spend doing it yourself. But then there's the question of experience. Was it more enjoyable to do it yourself? Did you find the experience valuable? Are you likely to need those skills sometime in the future? These are all questions that I have to ask myself when blogging and completing other computer activities - what's the cost of outsourcing, vs the advantages of doing it yourself.
