Outsourcing Ideas for the Common Man

I am thinking of outsourcing some of my chores to India. I have researched bundling our garbage and our litter boxes for shipment to India, so that some low-paid worker can carry the garbage out and clean the litter boxes, shipping back the cleaned boxes, along with a certified note to my wife that the garbage has been carried out. Perhaps I will do this with our laundry as well, if the garbage and litter box projects work out to my satisfaction.

On the other hand, I could hire some foreign students or some Mexican immigrants to do the work in my own home. I must make a note to perform a cost analysis between the two, outsorcing or hiring aliens here at home.
