[quote=Anonymous]This sounds like a troll but my husband hates budgets so I'll bite. I would tell her to go back for at least six months before quitting and I would play up the important of her having financial independence and even create a PPT with a "this is what we can do if we both work and our budget" and a much sadder "this is what we can do if only I work and our budget slide." Hammer it home! If I had quit my job when my first child was born 3 years ago my higher earning year would have been $94K. I make $255K now and I've had a second child during that time too and I am pregnant with my third. I would only quit my job if my husband made in excess of $900K and even then I probably wouldn't. People get fired all the time. It's a huge risk to be a one income household. [/quote]
