I no longer pay for cable TV, but I still pay someone to take care of our yard. There was a TV commercial that told me I have to give up my man card for doing that, so they can have it. I choose to relax as much as possible on weekends and have never regretted it.
Very interesting. I had lots of yard chores growing up for my allowance. Today, I look upon yardwork as extra exercise/more steps, plus, a very nice activity to preserve domestic tranquility.
