[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I’m a very high earner and work 70-80 hour weeks. I will be involved as I possibly can with kids, but she will be the default parent. We will hire help with childcare and housekeeping, but she will manage the day-to-day responsibilities of cooking, cleaning, shuffling kids to school, etc. My parents had the same setup and it worked. My dad was very involved in raising us, but my mom did the bulk of it. [/quote]

Define “very high earner.” Are you talking 300 or 400 thousand? Or seven figures?

Are you on board with hiring a housekeeper and babysitters or nannies or night nurses?

Are do you expect your wife to do all the cleaning and cooking and childcare without our sourcing?[/quote]

OP here. I’m looking for a normal relationship. I do not want an arranged marriage or a religious person. I also do not want anyone that is younger than 30. A mature women is more important to me than a younger woman.

I’m more than fine with her having her own career. What I do want is her to stay at home while the kids need FT care because I do not want them to be 100% raised by nannies.

I make in the $400k/year range and have assets in the millions range. [/quote]

You make the same as my spouse.  And also have assets in the millions. Two homes.

I have worked from home full-time in with the government since our first child was born (used to go into the Office).

Your marriage will be a lot better down the road with a stimulated woman than one staring at the walls when the kids reach school age.

Marriages like you describe—man and a lot of time woman go out and cheat because they have zero connection anymore.

A man that wants a woman barefoot and in the kitchen usually runs an authoritarian style household.  If your wife is smart and has a flexible job that’s another $200k/year added to your salary, her own retirement and great health benefits....but that would give her options if you turn into an @sshole which I guess you don’t want.  You can’t control her that way.[/quote]
