    At that point you’re just training in a new profession! More power to you if you can do it, but in the time it would take to learn the skills to an acceptable standard I could just work my actual job and use the money I earned to pay a professional!

      Had that same conversation with a coworker many years back. He pitched the “time is money” theory. Really, I’m salaried, this is off-hours work, I actually find it interesting and enjoyable, and save a fortune doing it, so that theory doesn’t apply very well.
