I wanted to wait until I reached level 5 to start asking more questions ...but...one question that I just answered made me wonder....What kind of person are you? choose between this two and explain:
1) Are you the "Do it yourself" kind of person, who would rather do something yourself (like painting your own house, or fixing the plumbing, or building something) than paying someone else to do the dirty work. OR..
2) Are you the kind of person who hates to do something and rather pay a lot of money for something really easy to do by yourself but NO..you really don't like the idea of you doing stuff like that, better let someone else do the job for you.
I am the "Do it yourself" kind of woman, I love to do stuff around my house not just because I like it but I can save lots of dollars If I do it myself, there are a few things though that I couldn't do...and wouldn't even try like "Plumbing" but other than that...I am ready to do everything, I'm not afraid of trying ..or destroying=D

Since I was in the Military I prefer doing it myself. This has lead to disastrous results. As an independent thinker, I cannot nor realize that some things are beyond my scope.
I thought I would fix the plumbing problem in my house. After identifying the said evil pipe. I merely took down it's name and went to my plumbing store. I replace pipe. Plumbing still down.
Now my toilet is overflowing. I replace wax seal. Very proud of that. All plumbing ceases. Nothing is now working.
i have to call expert in. within 5 minutes he replaces worn part.
It's a vent on my roof.

I do it myself. I cut down the trees and pulled the stumps on my lot. I shoveled gravel into the back of my truck and shoveled it out to build my driveway, all 350 feet of it. I dug the hole for my foundation and built my house from start to finish. I did the concrete work, framing, roof, drywall, trim wood floors, plumbing, I even made the plans I built it from. I did the landscaping, the roofing, and I saved the money to build it so I didn't have a payment when I was done. If you can do it yourself it seems like a real luxury to pay someone else to do for you what you can do for yourself.

Number 2 all the way! I'd rather pay someone else to do it. Don't get me wrong I could paint my house by myself but me being me I'd rather pay. Like my mom use to make "the man of the house" Taking out trash, mowing lawn everything. I'm just 16 but when I do get older I will definitely remember this question because I know I'm number 2!

Hopefully, I will chose to be a do it yourself person, because to me, questions look more like making decision on what I will be in the future, the former choice look like a person who establishes, and the latter one look like..someone who..skips the basics..

You know what..I think It is a problem to skip..because it makes things become having this feeling of granted, it caused to lose value to the person who skips

It took me some while to answer you, it would be inappropiate to just walk away...but it is hard to tell you that the problem is that there could be a distance in all relationships, I'm your brother, I Intented to..have interactions to all in here, but it becomes difficult when skipping everyhing, but if it is to have proper friendship, it is..a virtual friendship, and...that is skipping, so...
It is not very usual to wirte so much..anyways, see you around.
I hope this is not too trashy or nonsense to you.

I'm the number 2 type. I like to go number two. Pale, computer geeks with too much money belive that they are above dirty work. We are the reason that America and Europe is declining and China takes over.

1. I am the do-it-yourself person. I do all my projects myself including putting up walls, fixing electricity, and plumbing.

I'm a fishy kind of guy. =D

Sorry, couldn't help it...

Being serious now, I do stuff myself. I find it more efficient and cost effective to do so. And, I know the problem is fixed and in the rare chance it isn't, it's my fault and I just fix it again.
