[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to know what their Plan B is when the kids leave for college or if a divorce happens.[/quote]

I have a bunch of money. I’m more like someone who retired really early than like someone who was dying to be a SAHM. I didn’t really like my job so it was an easy call. [/quote]

Same.  I have a bunch of money. I feel I retired early. I also adored my kids and wanted to labor on their betterment and behalf instead of my employer.  So, it was easy for me to quit and pour my energy and efforts on my kids.

Job is job. It was not my passion. I was working to earn money because we wanted to climb the ladder of wealth.  But after a certain threshold of wealth was earned, I valued my time with my kids.  Also, my DH's goals for our family aligned with mine.  We wanted our domestic life to be  stess-free, have a good enriched lifestyle and have good health and relationships.  We also wanted our kids to thrive and succeed. All of that was managed by me and everyone benefited. [/quote]

Nicely said.  When you die, your kids, who are most important, will not care about whether you worked or not if you can provide for them, but they will care about the time you spend with them and the priority you make them.  And, hopefully, they will do the same for their kids.  [/quote]
