This is such a scam!!

The key is to have a rich father. I never have to get married or work. I can just have boyfriends and live off my trust.

Welcome to the NFL, Pepcid, energy drinks and binge drinking will get you through until your heart blows out an atrium.

And a man would bi**h about a woman wanting "self-care" and say she's lazy, she should be earning more, blah blah. And God forbid any of that money she earns should go to "self-care." What a waste of cash, right?

Yet he'll also be the one saying in a few years, "She didn't work out enough to look fit, she didn't cook super healthy meals to stay thin, she didn't keep her hair looking great, she doesn't get waxed any more....She's not hot enough for me any more because she let things slide."

F'ing hypocrite.

I don’t.

Maybe you just need to change employers or industry.

Are you even “trophy wife” material (personal trainer, poise classes, tons of time for hair & makeup, life to socialize w the same)?
That sounds like a ton of “work” and stupid work at that.

On this website, I feel like this is a troll post.

Full disclosure— I am a guy and I think that women will have to be extremely adept at setting boundaries to “have it all” with regards to a career, kids, home life, vacations, etc., and I think most professional jobs don’t allow for such boundaries. I also think the not-so-secret assumption of most professional employers (e.g., law firms) is that the employee’s spouse will stay-at-home if there are kids. One spouse working the equivalent of two jobs (e.g., 60-80 hours a week) very much assumes —in a purely practical sense — that such persons spouse stays home, or that there are no kids involved.

No. Not if one or both of you in the working power couple knows how to hire, manage and communicate with a nanny, housekeeper, driver, landscaper, etc.
if you are high functioning at work and home you’ll be fine. Your time at home will be for family and kid stuff. Plus check in at work.

Get rid of one of your cars
No iPhones
No out of state college
Driving vacations - nothing international
Mostly eat at home
No cable
Much smaller home
No cleaners or yard people
I could go on…

I have 0 cars
I’m not going to be able to save for state college never mind out of state but my parents didn’t either
I have never taken my kids on a vacation that’s not visiting family (by driving)
We eat mostly at home
We don’t have cable
Two kids in a one-bedroom apartment
No cleaners (also no yard people although also no yard)

Somehow I don’t think my problem is the three 2-8 year old iPhones I pay for.

Troll.

Sounds like you got really off track with either education or higher education or getting an actual profession going.
You’re paid based on your skills, knowledge, education, and experience. Low skilled job people are easy to replace, highly skilled people not so much.

You have two incomes just to live like this in a one bedroom?? You might as well quit, it won’t be a hit to your lifestyle at all.

Did something bad happen where you had kids and then lost all your money or your house or larger apartment?

I wouldn’t have had kids if I was living minimum wage $15/hr in a 1BR apartment.

Maybe the snap and other welfare programs can help.

Maybe not YOUR pathetic excuse for a husband, but mine does all of this and more. And we both work full-time.

Hahahaha, my DH has been really hating his job lately and has started buying a Megamillions ticket every week. I encourage it -- whatever keeps you going, plus who knows, maybe he'll win!

My DH does do stuff around the house BUT I still work harder than he does around the house, and I do WAY more of the childcare than he does, plus all the sort of high level planning/organizing.

I think you can and should expect your spouse to be a full participant in the home and with kids, but I also think women get held responsible for a lot more and carry a heavier burden than men do at home and with kids, about 90% of the time. There are outliers, but the average man is not doing as much around the house or with kids as the average woman.

Hah. I get jealous that my wife has always had time to work out during the day. First, when the kids were little, the gym had a day care. Then, when they went to school, she had a part-time job with flexible hours. I can only work out at the ass-end (or beginning) of the day. It's either 5:30 in the morning or 8:30 at night. So, mostly I just don't. Everything in between is work or family commitments.

There are a bunch of ways she envies me, so grass is greener and all of that.

Most women are jealous of you for having a wife.

No lies told. -someone who has been both

Although the real prize is wife to some you love who has family or his own money, while you also have yours.

I read an article where Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union say they split all decisionmaking and expenses for major purchases like their houses 50/50 and anything for their daughter ...because they are both multimillionaires--but they each have a certain amount of their wealth they spend on their own.

A rich father isn't necessary, any source of independent wealth will provide the same benefits. Rich grandmother, lottery win, large insurance settlement, etc.
