I pity the hog butchered by a computer programmer (though except for Zuckerberg I heard about few who tried.) I pity as well the programmer honing his hog butchering skills.

If you want to make the most money to be able to work the least hours over your lifetime, then focusing on those skills making the most money at the expense of other skills (and paying someone else with those skills when necessary) is the best strategy by far.

If you enjoy fucking around with plumbing, then by all means fuck with it all you want. But if making less money and fucking with plumbing is your plan to free up the most time for other things (neither making money nor plumbing), then I think it's just plain dumb.
