[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read book about this: statistically, most high income men have SAH wives. Once they reach a certain amount, the majority would prefer their wives to be home especially with the kids.[/quote]

I read a book about this: statistically, divorce rates follow the stock market, when it is up so is divorce rate, so if men can afford to dump you they do.[/quote]

It doesn't work that way for the most part!  DH works in finance and there are very few divorces.  (You generally have to be pretty emotionally stable to work those types of jobs but also it is very, very expensive to divorce when you are making in excess of 500k and have a long time sahp.)  The entire office, not in DC. is made up almost entirely of men with a SAHP -- not so much because the men prefer stay at home wives, but because the job is so demanding that it helps to have a partner to pick up the pieces.[/quote]

You misread my post. I did not say men in finance get divorced. I said when the stock market is up divorce rate is up. When the stock market is down, divorce rate is down. It is the cheaper to keep her phenomenon.[/quote]
