[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP. I’m happy she found something, but I do think it highlights that while you may be able to get a job after taking time off, it may not be a particularly great one. I’m in the legal industry and while I know the rare bird that took a decade off and then returned to the workforce, it’s usually low paid and wouldn’t permit the woman to truly support herself if she divorced. [/quote] This is why I think women should set a goal to save enough to cover contingencies like loss of DH's high-paying job or divorce. Then they can stop working once they reach that goal. Working and saving first then becoming a SAHM on solid financial footing seems smarter than be a SAHM now with an eye to trying to reenter the workforce after a big gap.[/quote]
