DIY is good if this is part of your life plan. Otherwise it's a distraction.

We live in civilization for a reason; different people specialize in different tasks so that overall, we all can enjoy our lives more.

In other words, except for simple little things, don't make me fix my bathroom: there are people who do this faster and better than me, but NO ONE is going to fix bugs in my software for me. To each his own.
