What is a lot more affordable than most people realize?

Hiring someone to clean your house.

No, not the naughty maid type. Just a regular one.

My girlfriend and I hire someone to come once a month and we treat it like an investment in our relationship.

True story: one of the maids this company sent was super, super attractive. Her name was Maria. I was at home writing and I texted Laura, jokingly, “Laura—you shouldn’t leave me alone with this maid. She’s super hot.”

Two hours later, Laura was getting off of work. The maid was still at the house.

She comes up to my office with a smile on her face, “Damn. Your weren’t lying. She really is hot.”

There’s no porn ending to this one fellas. We had a new maid after that. So long as they help us keep the house clean, we are good.

Consider investing in periodic cleanings. It’s nice to come home to a clean house. It’s often cheaper than many of your other bills.
