[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basically your spouse has to earn enough that your income doesn’t matter, so that’s a personal question. Our HHI is about 500k and my husband makes around 340k of that. Between our savings goals and our expenses, we utilize both of our incomes and would have to really reprioritize if I quit my job. But other people do it on less.[/quote] OP asked how SAHMs make it work. She didn’t ask rich working moms why they aren’t staying home, but as usual you all chimed in anyway. [/quote] Answer is quite simple. You have to live a lifestyle that can be supported by the one workers salary. If you cannot do that, you should not stay at home. [/quote]
