[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We decided for me to SAH over 10 years ago when my DH made far less than he does now. I think he made MAYBE 100k/year. We cut back on everything to make it work. He makes around 1 mil/year now. [/quote] I haven’t had exactly this experience, but it did happen that when DH had complete flexibility at work, he was able to increase his income enough to cover my loss of income within a year or so. We both wanted this, though. I wanted to be home with the kids, and he wanted to lean in harder at work. I would also have been fine with the flip and leaning in hard at work while he stayed at home with kids. Neither of us really liked the lifestyle where we were both trying to balance everything.
