[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]YES.  We'd do it.  We've done it.  We outsource what we can so the time he is home isn't spent doing stupid stuff, it's spent as a family.  But he works long hours anyway, so if he is getting home at 9pm and leaving again at 7am, being out on travel isn't any different as far as our child is concerned.  So thanks very much for that salary double.

Sure, in a perfect world, we'd make do with less and he'd be home more.  But the student loans aren't concerned with our work-life balance.

I guess if you really don't need it, have absolutely no debt and a loaded school/college fund for your kids and a good retirement fund, turn it down.  Otherwise, get extra help and negotiate an end date and start counting down.[/quote]
+1 I actually find it easier when he is gone, than when he bursts through the door at 9:30 PM expecting the family to spend more time when they are in the getting to bed mode. School starts very early. I prefer when he is here he is here, not he is gone 7AM to 9PM.[/quote]
