[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH has a very niche technical skill and was offered a very lucrative consulting role earlier this year. He can pick up [i][b]$10,000-$50,000 extra per month.[/b][/i] Since the money was good, DH accepted the consulting role and DH can do the work when he is available but it requires him to travel about 2x per month. It has been about 6 months and this extra consulting job is basically at the expense of ALL DH's free time. DH thinks he should continue doing the work and we should save the $. I personally don't think it is worth the expense of all our family time. DH doesn't like being away from our family either. He doesn't particularly enjoy the work. It's just purely for the money. Would you have your DH continue to work the extra hours for the money?[/quote] Wait a minute here - $10,000-$50,000 extra PER MONTH??? Some people make $30K - $50K in a whole year! Rich people problems! I wish I had those. [/quote] Exactly! On the subject- yes, absolutely, as my H is not much help at home anyway. He plays with the kiddo after dinner, and in between bath time and bed, but I can absolutely hire someone to do that and I am sure he or she would deliver so much more quality. [/quote]
