I find the cooking one weird, because the food you cook for yourself is usually the best. I know exactly how cheesy I like my pasta sauce, and how big I like the chunks of chicken sliced in my curry, and what ratio of spices I like in my fajitas. I'm not even that good a cook. I can't imagine having enough money to want to stop doing that.
You might not be that good a cook by your own admission, but some people can't cook at all. They just never learned it, and they'll just burn the food.
I had a coworker who could only cook chicken. The only way she knew how to cook it was boiling it in a saucepan on high heat for about two hours, like her mom did. No salt, no pepper, no seasoning at all.
