Life Outsourcing

Filed in archive Opinions & Insights on July 29, 2007

No, there is no such thing as outsourcing your life but you could consider outsourcing the menial things about it if you want.

Based on this article written by Cynthia Hubert, you could now opt to outsource some of the personal details in your life which you don't have anytime left for. Here is an excerpt from this article:

In our overscheduled society, even middle-class people are hiring personal assistants. And it's gone way beyond dog walking and grocery shopping.
Today, people of relatively modest means are outsourcing everything from planning marriage proposals to standing in line to nab elusive PlayStations.

If you think about it, this trend is absolutely true. The more time we devote to work, the less for our personal needs. I just hope that in time we could find a balance to it because your life could not be outsourced.
