[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] One of my college friend seriously dreamt of becoming a SAHM but ended up becoming a dentist and marrying a lawyer. She gave up work after 3 years of practice when she had kids and recently went back to work after 22 years. She is 56 and planning to retire again when her husband retires. He is 62 and planning to retire at 66. If it weren't for being an empty nester and husband bust at office, she wouldn't have gone back to work. Some people are just chill and not ambitious. [/quote] Similar story here - different career but close enough. I never became a SAHM but I did mommy track myself for 10 years, then as my youngest entered school full time plus afternoons filled with sports commitments, I decided to refocus on my career and the earnings gap between DH and I has shrunk. It wouldn't have worked if DH didn't make enough to cover us during the 10 years I was working relatively little. [/quote]
