[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I are planning a family but we want to keep working. There seems to be a point at which despite high incomes ( we are a doctor/lawyer couple) it becomes too hard to sustain. What’s the magic number? [/quote] One. Unless you will both be very involved managing and running the household together or fluidly tagteaming. Do not have one person leading everything while working fulltime and handing out “tasks” to the other “parent.” Even managing a nanny needs attention and communication. You can’t outsource many decisions to nannies or housekeepers. They want you to think they’re doing super well so be ready for major stories about dents in the car, why they can’t make it in, how the kid suddenly got ill, etc.[/quote]
