How to Buy Back Your Time: Outsourcing Tasks with Farnoosh Torabi

Today's episode is all about outsourcing, a topic around which my views have evolved over the years.

(Read: As you get older and busier, you're less interested in "doing it all," apparently.)

We discuss how to determine what's worth outsourcing in your life and how much to pay for it, as well as address some common objections. My guest today, Farnoosh Torabi, is an icon in the personal finance world (and a mother of 2!) and she's got some #hottakes on the value of her (and your) time.

You can check out Farnoosh on CNET's So Money podcast.
