[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It annoys me when the “seven figure DH” SAHMs parachute in bc because for them, it wasn’t much of a choice. Since they’re not into having careers, then they weren’t giving up much.[/quote]

The type of woman who attracts a man who earns seven figures is usually well educated. Most of the women I know married to successful men were also successful in their careers. I gave up my career to stay home with my kids. I didn’t expect to stay home. I didn’t expect to miss my baby so much when I was at work at my demanding job. I went expecting the juggling of kids and a career to be so difficult, especially when your husband has a very demanding job. I really hated leaving my baby with a nanny.[/quote]

Or she just got lucky. Doubt he was making 7 figures in his 20s.

And plenty of the women who get lucky find their husbands trade in for a younger model. Tale as old as time. [/quote]

Np. She did get lucky. There are many well educated women with careers who do not have spouses earning 2 mil.

It doesn't change the fact that many women married to high earning spouses are well educated and had good careers before deciding to SAHP.

Doctors marry doctors. Attorneys marry attorneys, and so on. This is very common. Some will remain dual income, and some will have one partner step back once there are children in the picture.[/quote]
