I do not see a LOL attached to any line of your post. I hope it is in jest. I mean "Home organizing"! Come on now, surly no one is that inept.

Bob Devine ... Ineptitude is defined differently at different stages of life. You obviously think everyone is as young and vigorous as you are. As of course I was once. But time passes and muscles and strength diminish and by the time you get to your eighties, which my husband and I are, a little help is greatly needed and appreciated. It's not a question of stupidity, dear boy, but of physical strength and energy.

Personally, I'm very grateful to Barrister for the information and details about personal organizers.

Thank you, Barrister. As always you are greatly helpful.

For the big bucks, "Community Organizer" is the way to go.

One of these days I gotta get myself organizized.

Another viewpoint may be lonely people who have enough money, with or without family who won't spend time with them, or who have ticked the parents off so bad, the parents would rather "spend" some of their kids inheritence buying the time/companionship of strangers.

Which brings to mind a commercial: "People who work with a financial planner on average have 3 times as much as people who don't." Of course! What planner is going to waste their time working with someone whose broke?

I'm not sure about financial planners (3 times what? What they started with? When?). Too many people I know got burned this last few years regardless of the planner's credentials. My suggestion is K.I.S.S.
