We have a $2m+ HHI but I’m a sahm. I don’t want someone in the house all the time.

We have friends with similar, some higher, some lower with a ton of household help. Many of these households have dual incomes so they outsource as much as possible. Depending on the live in, the cost isn’t so high since housing can be deducted from pay. I know my friends who had live in Nannies and housekeepers often paid them less than a full time nanny.

I had a neighbor with twins who had a staff of 6. She always had at least 2 Nannie’s at a time. Dad was always traveling internationally and mom was an investment banker. They had separate people to do different duties. I don’t know how much they earned. I’m sure a lot.

People with demanding jobs need more than full time help so live in covers them. Having a full time nanny and housekeeper isn’t uncommon or having 2 Nannie’s. I wouldn’t find a live in housekeeper any more impressive than just having a full time housekeeper.

I am astounded that someone with a household income of 2m+ doesn't know when to use an apostrophe and when not to. guess your husband is the smart one.

You probably shouldn't throw stones. Have you read your own response?

You should pronoun more and capitalize more.

Lol pp here. It is autocorrect from my phone.

I often wonder how some people have such poor grammar. I guess others can think that of me with iPhone autocorrect.

She did say her husband earns $2M and she earns $0. Though with assortative mating, one would assume she was also a professional before kids and would know basic spelling and grammar.

I am ivy educated and used to outearn Dh when we got married.
