[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG the lack of perspective is mind boggling. $65K is still a respectable salary even for long hours. Tons of families would kill for that salary. You act like he’s unemployed. [b]If he were making more, but still working the same hours what would change?[/b] You’d still be frustrated that he wasn’t home when you want him to be. [/quote] You cannot be serious with this question! If he made more money they could afford to have take out delivered, hire cleaners, a babysitter or any number of things that would make life easier. Maybe it’s just the mental break to not have to budget strictly to live within their means. This is an extreme example, but I have a friend whose husband works really long hours—BUT he makes big law money. They outsource everything. She has a housekeeper and a handyman who comes to do things like put up Christmas lights and hang picture frames. My friend is very relaxed and happy. It absolutely makes a difference![/quote]
