[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. She doesn’t want to quit. She wants to go part time. She plans to use part of the time to be with the kids, run weekend errands, and part to focus on some entrepreneurial long shots. We are talking to a financial planner to get confirmation this is (reasonably) prudent. [/quote] So she goes from $100K to $40K - $60K per year? We do find on about $100K HHI less than that, doesn't seem like a problem so long as she's not going on a crazy spending spree during her free time. I think it's reasonably fair if she's using some of the free time to take care of errands and stuff that will benefit the family and perhaps free up time on the weekends. I was initially against it because it sounded like she wanted to quit completely and not SAH with the kids but part-time sounds reasonable.[/quote]
