[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is with all these SAHMs listing ‘investing’ as a core task? How much time can you possibly spend on this? Are you diving into financial statements or buying stocks on margin?

Also, a SAHM with a traveling for work DH is NOTHING like a single mom.  Bollucks.

OP, your DH makes mad money but seems to take you for granted, so hire whatever help you need. I would plan to summer at the beach or something like that, it will help recharge to deal with all the other ‘ick’ you allude to. [/quote]

OP here.  It depends on how actively you invest and in what.  A lot of people buy and hold stock and ETFs and that is fine and doesn't take much work.  DH and I invest in these as well as limited partnership interests in real estate developments, private equity funds, among other things.  DH just got on my case because I hadn't reviewed any of the paperwork for a new real estate investment and I recently missed a Q&A with the general partner because I didn't have childcare and was too exhausted, anyway.[/quote]

Then you must have gobs of money, why is there even a question. At this point you should have a governess and an expert financial advisor. Were you in contracts law and finance before staying home?[/quote]
