[quote=Anonymous]To most of the country, any salary above $100k is a lot of money, and would usually only be earned by a highly-skilled professional who works long hours, or someone who own their own businesses (and probably works even longer hours). The expectation that your spouse will be making that kind of money without putting in some serious OT is unrealistic. Unfortunately, many people in DC have inflated lifestyle expectations are not really compatible with working parents spending lots of time with their kids. It's also a side-effect of the hollowing-out of the middle class. Either you're making decent money, working long hours, or you are un/under/employed and making barely enough to survive. I think this is particularly bad in DC, and in other major cities. Some of you should reconsider your contempt for the "fly-over states." It must be hell working long hours, and then coming hope to a spouse that resents your for it. [/quote]
