Why are so many Americans willing to pay for someone else to mow their lawn?

The only people I've ever known to have it done are the very wealthy that have them as a landscaper or the old and infirm that cannot manage to mow it themselves. Normal guys just cut it themselves.

I wouldn't be suprised if this was economically sensible.
You must look at the cost of opportunity and economy of scale.
You must not only pay for the mower, its upkeep and fluids. You must also either buy or rent the space you keep it in. Lastly and most importantly you must evaluate your own time. Your job pays more per hour than Jesus job (which id mowing lawns)? Go work in the meantime or enjoy your free time doing what you really want.
>inb4 I simply have the space
That's not an argument. In a perfect market economy you could sell or rent it or you should not have bought what you didn't need to begin with.
Economy of scale is self explanatory.
