This is the wrong question.

The correct answer however is that if you are editing text more than
half an hour a day, you should be using emacs.  

And if you're editing text more than four hours a day, you should be
programming emacs to ease and automatize your editing.

Of course, if you're editing text for ten years or more, you should be
using emacs (and learning to better use it everyday) for ten years or
more.
