[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn’t sound like it’s a good idea for your wife to stay at home. She sounds like she spends a lot of money on unnecessary expenses. You need to suck it up and find a good daycare center. You cannot afford a nanny on your salaries in this area. I would put off having a second until you can agree on how to raise the one you already have. Good luck. [/quote] This. Her spending (on wants, not needs) is already ridiculous, but at least the $100K she’s bringing in helps to offset that. Without working? No way.[/quote] +1. You would need to cut down on this spending even if she stayed working to offset childcare. Without working, they need to be even more drastically reduced. We make that much in a low COL area and don't spend even close to what you guys do on wants. We don't really heavily monitor our spending, but I get my hair done 4x a year (balayage) and that's it. We don't do meal services, but do eat out a few times a week.[/quote]
