[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I met my husband, I made $60k. Granted that was over 15 yrs ago. After we got married, I quit to take care of the kids and start my own business. I made a negligible amount of money for years. My husband supported me through this, which was a massive sacrifice for him and I’m forever grateful. I now make roughly $350k as WAHM at 40.

The income increase is a journey and usually one that doesn’t peak in early 20s. Meet a woman with a good education and work ethic. If you support each other in your careers, you’ll hopefully get there.[/quote]

Wow! What field are you in?[/quote]

Im a lawyer, but I do t work in a traditionally “big money” field. I left work as an associate to take care of kids bc I wanted to be very involved in the child rearing. Not everyone wants that, I know.  DH encouraged me to work as solo and start my own firm. It took a while to build up bc of the kids. Now I’m doing alright but could be better if youngest will ever get to school. She’s K.[/quote]
