[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think you can compare any situation. My husband has a stable 40 hour a week job where he has to be on site but can flex his hours if needed most of the time. He is home for dinner and does not bring work home (per his job). [/quote] How do afford expensive housing on single earner with basic 40 hr job? Is he specialized talent and demands $$$$ for few hours?[/quote] A lot of people out by us have this setup. The DH makes $175-$225 in a 40/hr week job (finance, IT, in-house legal) and they can afford a $600-$800k house in a western Fairfax/eastern Loudoun suburb. Very very common around us. The husbands all work in Reston/Herndon/tysons/Chantilly. OP my DH is gone 8:45-6:15 (works 9-6 with a 15m commute) and very rarely travels, occasionally responds to quick work emails on his phone, but not a lot.[/quote]
