That's the cultural difference. In the US, we like to do things ourselves, no matter the cost.

I wouldn't say no matter the cost, but if the income is disposable, yes, we'd prefer to be able to do something when we want and not based on the schedule of a company/vendor we'd have to have the service provided by.

A great example? Look how popular 24 hour Walmarts are.
