Yeah, $100 a month is really low. You could maybe get one of the "by the hour" virtual assistants for a few hours but any competent ones are going to want more than that.

I think the only thing in there that a virtual personal assistant wouldn't do is sorting papers. But if you scanned them they could also do that.
