Question Regular Preventative Maintenance for Your Car

I am interested in knowing what types of general preventative maintenance (should be applicable to all cars) the automotive gurus on here perform on their cars and at what intervals. I figure everyone knows to change your oil, oil filter, and air filters at regular intervals. I am asking because I am tired of being told that I need to do X, Y, and Z to my car when I take it in for an oil change and I always feel a twinge of guilt that I decided not to do something, in terms of maintenance, that I should be doing to my car.

Tire rotations?
Tranny flush and fill?
P/S flush and fill?
Brake fluid flush and fill?
Radiator flush and fill?
Cleaning corrosion off of battery contacts?
etc....

Is there a benefit to doing a radiator flush and fill (or any of the other flushes and fills) at a car shop vice doing it yourself at home?

Thank you!
