[quote=Anonymous]Financially, if you actually get and can keep those jobs it should work as long as you are frugal and his "hobbies" aren't too expensive. I would personally be a bit concerned and want to really delve into some of this perhaps with an independent third party before embarking. There is nothing wrong with SAHP, but it sounds like he's doing it because he couldn't find any work that he liked. That is possibly a red flag to explore. Being a SAHP is hard and he may not like that either. What happens then? It is also a huge responsibility to support a family and it sounds like you haven't even started your job/jobs yet. You need to think long and hard about this so you don't end up resentful. Also I would seriously bulk up savings, like a year's worth, if you are the only provider. It's certainly doable, but if it were me I would want for us to go in with eyes wide open and strong communication.[/quote]
