[quote=Anonymous]So you’ve set yourself up for some hard trade offs long term because DH makes so much more than you. Could you live comfortably on a fed salary plus your income ($235k ish)? You could but it will take careful planning to ensure you don’t have a bunch of debt payments like car loans, your mortgage is reasonable, student loans are paid off etc. I’m guessing DH works so much because he feels like he needs to make counsel or partner or at least leverage a client relationship for an excellent in house position making at least $250k. And he is probably right. You don’t make $400k in law spending all sorts of great family time, taking kids to doctors etc. honestly you’d probably be better off quitting and going all in on DHs career for a few years unless you want a huge pay cut for him in exchange for more time. 65k a year WFH can’t be that fulfilling of a job.
