It is actually remarkable how often it is cheaper and faster to buy the tools, learn how to use the tools and fix it yourself than it is to call someone else to get the thing repaired.

Today’s example of this was fixing a leaky joint in some PEX plumbing. Cost of calling a plumber, likely north of $200. Entry level tools and the parts I need, $60ish.
