[quote=Anonymous]DH has had a business - which in first few years, made some money - not a lot but decent.  Recently, with the economy in his industry - its been low to no income.   he definitely picks up a lot of kids things, but we still have part-time household help (that I fund) and I do far too much - to give him more time/savings.     We manage a decent lifestyle - because of my career, but are tight in many areas that are bc of his business.  If he were a SHD - this would not be the case.  We would be far more comfortable, have  lot more savings ,and less stress for the overall family - but no possible dream for him.     We continue to work through it - but in hindsight, it would have been better to go in with some tighter parameters at the beginning.

You have to go in thinking, there may not be income, there could be years with negative income - it could be up and down.    Making "lifestyle changes" - Cutting back for a long time to fuel a business can seem less fair over time - not just to you individually, but your family.   [/quote]
