[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seen far too many 'gray divorces' in my time and the fallout. I've seen women have to basically go out and find a job late 40s/50s/60 which is a helluva lot harder to do and start off at a much lower salary at that age. Never wanted to be reliant on someone else's retirement fund or salary. Having a means to support yourself gives you options. I was fortunate to get paid well with great benefits and do it fully from home after my kids were born. I waited 7 years to have them when my career was in a great place (had 10 years on the job at that point; 35-- had kids 35 and 37). [/quote] ^^my husband was making around $450k at that time. So it wasn't essential, but I wasn't leaving another $200k w/great family health benefits/retirement on the table.[/quote]
