[quote=Freeman]It really depends entirely on what you and your husband are comfortable with. Sure, it would be possible to live on the $94k salary alone, but that doesn't mean you would enjoy the lifestyle adjustment needed. I liked the advice about trying to live solely on the one salary for six months before making the decision. Also, make sure you take into account future expenditures that may come up, such as college, car payments, medical expenses, etc., and how they would impact your finances. Another big factor is how secure your husband's job is likely to be in the future. Being the sole wage-earner when your job outlook is rocky can be an extremely stressful situation. All in all, the answer is really up to you.[/quote]
