[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious...my significant other had a huge increase in pay this year and I've been thinking about staying home.  I don't love my job, but I never imagined myself stepping away from a career.  We will be able to live very comfortably, as in the pay increase is more than [b]my low six figure salary[/b].  My partner's job is very stressful and time consuming so most of the burden of child rearing and household chores falls to me.  I don't mind doing it, but sometimes think I would really love more time with the kids, which not working would afford.[/quote]

A six figure salary is not low.  Even if it is $100K.  Not even in this area.[/quote]

A low six-figure salary means that it's in the low $100k's.[/quote]

Yes, I understand that.  She is saying her husband's pay increase is more than her "low six figure salary."  I am saying that any six figure salary is not low.  I don't even think my $60K salary is low.[/quote]
NP here.  You're still not understanding.  The OP should've added a hyphen to make it read "low-six-figure salary."[/quote]
