[quote=Anonymous]Agree with others you are correct, OP. Also agree that this can get really emotional, so you'll need to find a way to approach this with DH will as little emotion as possible. Tell him you'd want to see how this works budget wise. You can help by providing info on different budget items: Food Childcare Utilities Current housing Childcare etc Then he has to plug all this in, and you see what you have left over. Is it enough? Are you able to save for retirement, for kids' education, etc? If it's possible for you to make cute (maybe there is cheaper housing?) than it's on HIM (i.e. the one without a full-time job) to do the legwork and demonstrate how this plan makes financial sense. For the moment, try to keep the viability of the self-employment out of it. You are just doing nuts-and-bolts determination of how this would work month in, month out for the next year. Good luck![/quote]
