Do you think it's worth paying someone to do it for me?

Last year I paid a 13yo, with his parents permission, to help me rake. $40 for 2 hours of work and we did it twice. So $80...

Best money I've spent.

I really really can't handle the physical stress some seasons.

Maybe a kid on the block. He'll be a lot cheaper than a landscaper.

I wouldn't want to rake or blow snow either.
