I spend a lot of time fixing things, for myself and others. (Computers, electrical, plumbing, etc). While I learn a lot, I wonder sometimes if it would be better to pay a professional and do something else for which I am more 'valuable'. Do you do the same, and do you find it worthwhile?
The answer is it depends on a lot of things, my answer comes from my current financial situation which is stable but not anything crazy.
If I have been working a lot and have money to use, I value my free time at ~2-3x my equivalent hourly wage. If the task is something I enjoy and I have time, I'd rather do it myself than pay someone else. If it is something messy, something I don't want to do, or something I am bad at or might screw up, that is a problem that money can solve.
It shouldn't be controversial to say this but humans deserve free time, we should have leisure and hobbies. You should not have to constantly fight/work to survive. We as a species are past that point and it is sad that society has not figured that out. Instead society chooses to keep the status quo where some people have to work 60-80hrs a week to exist.
No, I don't have the answer on how to change that.
