[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a much younger sister in her early thirties and she and nearly all of her friends are SAHM’s to men working good professional jobs. Looking at the housing turnover in my neighborhood this seems to be the case there too. So I’m not sure if your theory is accurate.[/quote]

I think it also depends where you live but ultimately, the high earning lawyer plus high earning cardiologist will do better overall financially and have the most resources of their kids. In the end, I can see this being the ideal set up. [/quote]

You think a kid being raised by a big law partner and a busy specialist doctor is the ideal set up? Those people are going to need a backup nanny for the main nanny, so we are gonna have to agree to disagree there. [/quote]

+1. The lawyer wife will be posting on dcum in five years that she’s not sure whether she should go back to her grueling job at an inflexible law firm, and because while she contributes a good amount to their lifestyle, they don’t “need” the money.

That said, my sister is in a two high earner marriage. Does it happen? Yes. But it’s somewhat uncommon. Many families have two working spouses but the scenarios are much more skewed towards one high/medium earner and a low earning/sah spouse, or two medium earners. [/quote]

Except for those in medicine. My DH is a ‘specialist physician’ and we know so many high earning husband and wife physicians. They just outsource everything but keep their jobs!
