So essentially, the best investment one can make is to be rich, so they can afford having hired help to solve basic day to day problems that regular people must deal with on their own.

That's because if you are a statistically average person paying half their income on housing, another quarter on basic necessities, and saving another 10%, you can't really afford to spend almost your entire disposable income paying 3 hours of wages + taxes for another average employee, every week.

Sort-of like the stereotypical upper-middle-rich-white lamentations that "these days you can no longer find any good babysitter/cook/help/valet", as if living a life of privilege is a birth right.

The tone and content of this thread is quite a trip into the the entitlement culture of contemporary techies.
