One can always make money, but one cannot make time. I am so busy with so much stuff in my life right now, I simply do not have time to be real involved in DIY. As a result of deliberate choices I have made, my time is fairly limited.
I do want to "share my wealth" by purchasing stuff from folks on here who have made decisions to spend their time making hammock related stuff. It is about choices, nothing is right or wrong, just a choice.
For those DIY folks out there, go for it. The feelings of satisfaction are important and relevant. I simply choose to, at least at this point in my life, patronize those folks here who are willing to exchange their time and talent for my money. What is incredible is the level of talent and commitment to excellence among the vendors here. How fortunate we are!
Maybe when I am working less I will DIY more, for now, I can't beat the exchange. I view it as contributing to the economic well being of others, a redistribution of wealth.
