[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would a sahm support herself genius?[/quote]

She gets a job, duh.[/quote]

Why would she do that when she has someone bringing home the money already? It's much easier to get a side piece than a $200k job for a sahm[/quote]

My trophy wife AP was a SAHM whose kids had left the nest a couple of years ago and had a high-earning but always-gone husband (whose abilities in bed were a bit lacking). She was bored and eventually sought out some fun while he was away, which led her to me. Her options were:

1. Divorce her husband who enabled her to stay at home, shop, whatever, and never have to worry about income. Have to find employment of her own and seek out new companionship (we worked great as AP's but both acknowledged we would have never dated each other due to, among other things, the 14 year age difference (29 vs 43).

2. Stay with her husband, enjoy all the benefits he provided while also enjoying the benefits a much younger man with the stamina to match could provide whenever she needed it (which turned out to be a lot).

Which one do you think she chose? Not saying any of it was right, but you are naive if you can't see why she did what she did.[/quote]

She was 43 and her kids had left the nest a few years earlier?  OK.[/quote]

They had kids young. She was 19-22 during her child-bearing years. Both kids left when they turned 18, which puts her at 40 when the last one left. Math not your strong suit is it?[/quote]
Strange a guy who got married so young was such a high income earner. Was her husband older?[/quote]

If he was, it was only by a couple of years. I don't know what he earned when they got married. It was the early/mid-80's, it was easier to pull off the single income back then I suppose. I grew up in the 80's and most of my friends' moms were SAHM. Not really that strange.[/quote]
