[quote=Anonymous] OP, you mentioned that you and your spouse are in fields where you are helping others (teacher and social worker). While they may not be high paying jobs, they are both jobs where you have the opportunity to affect the lives of others in positive ways. Many people will have much more admiration and respect for people in helping professions than for those in much more highly paid fields. Maybe it's worth it to think about and focus on the people whose lives are better because you and your husband were there for them? I had a parent who spent eight weeks in hospice care. One of the hospice personnel was a social worker who did so much to help my parents through this difficult time. She does not earn a high salary, but I have way more admiration for what she does than for many of the people who our society deems worthy of high recompense. [/quote]
