[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a time when my wife didn’t work, it was about four months.  It was the greatest four months ever, she basically took on the persona of 1950s housewife, the house was spotless, dinner hit the table at 6:45, she would change into something fancy and I was greeted at the door with a martini a few times.  
It’s been like 17 years and I still remember how great it was. Jobs, kids and everything took off about a year after and we are like any other couple now, but if this stay at home wife wants to make beautifying someone’s world her job then I do not see what the crime is at all. 
Participation in commerce is not a prerequisite for being a person. [/quote]

Disagree. I find people who don’t work real jobs to be quite dull and one-dimensional. You’re nostalgic now but I can tell you that having a 1950s housewife is not all that great. [/quote]

I find people that work boring jobs to be sad. Most would quit if they hit the lottery.

Women or men who are in a good position to stay home, travel, and have many interests are...actually more interesting. Most of us wish we could have that lifestyle, but most have to pay the bills. Don't hate because your life sucks. [/quote]

I think many could live under their means, but a lot of people are not good at managing money.  That's been proven over and over.  Most on here would quit in a heart beat if they were able to. Definitely more interesting to be able to pursue hobbies, travel, and other endeavors. [/quote]
