[quote=Anonymous]Oh gosh, I am a high level GS fed (sounds similar to you) and my husband is a law firm partner. I would 100 percent rather he had a set up like your husband’s despite the $ (he likes his job, so I try to be supportive but it’s caused a lot of friction in our marriage over the years). Having a second kid soooo increases the amount of stuff you have to deal with- doctors appointments, school stuff before you know it. And two different drop offs when one kid is in school is so much logistically difficult (even if you have a bus stop). Seriously don’t push him right now unless you desperately need the money. Being underpaid by $5 is really not a big deal compared to the perks you describe as long as he feels valued. Can you move further out to buy a bigger house for similar $? If he’s fully remote and you have any flexibility (most feds do, IME) maybe that’s a compromise [/quote]
