[quote=Anonymous]Long range perspective: when married without kids, it was 50-50. We were same income, similar hours/career stress. SAHM for decades: I did all household management. We have never had cleaners. On weekends he did the lawn care. Inside and out, we do an adequate average job I'd say of upkeep but never stellar. Retired now, we're back to 50-50 though it's more like housemates w/benefits. We're each more particular re: eating/grocery shopping. We tend to care for ourselves. We mostly eat together usually but have fixed different things. He still does much more of the lawn work. I was using the lawn mower for awhile but it exasperated a shoulder injury. I do more of some-of the cleaning, but I won't think he's ever cleaned a toilet, for example. Bill paying went back-and-forth in the early years before agreement that I focused on it better though we now benefit from profession tax/investment advice[/quote]
