do everything that I can myself... Regardless of how wealthy I am, I can't fathom paying someone over $100 to change my brakes

Well, that and brakes are easy. Even the old drum brakes aren't difficult.

I've done pretty much everything, but body work. Changed head gaskets, entire motors, entire rear axle on a truck because the rear differential blew, front CV joint/axle, wheel hubs, truck nuts, you name it. Most stuff isn't that bad to do if you're mechanically capable at all. Mostly now, I just do oil/fuel filters, and other basic stuff.
