[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the biglaw partner, DW is sahm. We have a nanny/housekeeper in 3-4 days per week. I’m with the kids in the morning, having breakfast/coffee before school. I greet them when they get home (wfh at least 3 days a week, usually 4 or 5). We all eat dinner together. I very rarely work weekends and when I do it’s either a quick call or two, or mindless admin work I can do in front of the TV (entering time). I’ve never once missed or cut short a vacation; I’ve worked some on vacations but never enough where it’s noticeable. This is not achievable in all practices or at all firms. I’ve been fortunate. But I was also strategic about what I wanted. I’ll probably never get to that 4-6MM range, but I’m 40 and just crossed the 1MM threshold which is fine for me. [/quote] If your schedule is so cozy, and your wife is a SAHM, then why the nanny? Seems excessive. [/quote]
