Well, yeah. Duh.

Guessing the actuarial tables say I have about 40 years left. That's an estimated hourly cost of $10 in real terms. Alternatively, assuming I have to pay upfront and if I believed I could earn a wild 20% return per year over inflation on that $2,000 over 40 years, it's an hourly cost of about $147, which is more than I should pay given my financial standing but not crazy high.

My caveats would be that I'd have to have a reasonable belief that it actually would save the time, it'd have no significant downsides, and it'd not take away one of the mindless tasks I find relaxing and enjoyable.
