I'm similar, my only rule is I don't work on gas or complicated electricity. Too risky, bring in a pro.
I'll work on complicated 12V no problem, but prefer leaving even fairly simple 240V to pros.
I'm less worried about being electrocuted and more worried about creating a fire hazard
If my car burns down, it burns down. I'll buy a similarly priced beater.
If I get electrocuted with 240, I could die though. Plus if my house burns down it's gonna be a bit of a bigger deal than the car
