[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On the flip side, now I hear from two friends in their 50s who were SHMs and they can’t get back into the workforce. They’ve forgotten a lot, didn’t keep up with changes, etc. They are regretting that they left the workforce. [/quote] And they see their peers (and younger women) who have stuck or are sticking it out and get the titles and jobs for which the SAHMs could’ve been on track. But they can never catch up. If you’re ok with that OP, and you can make the numbers work, do it. But plenty of people do it all without the same level of support you have (less money, single parents, less outsourcing, etc.). Also, you WFH two days a week. That’s huge. If you can give up 400K/year and not really notice it, that’s a huge level of privilege. [/quote]
