[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But since she’s presumably working for fun I disagree with you.

It makes sense that those of you who have missed out on your kids only equate income with success, but those of us who invest in relationships and our families can be very open minded in what defines our success to us. [/quote]

If working as a greeter at Walmart or a barista at Starbucks or the check-in person at the gym or if she’s really lucky and gets a job answering phones somewhere - if that’s fun and success, then be open-minded and debate away.  For people who actually have these jobs, I don’t think anyone is calling it “fun”.

It doesn’t have anything to do with income or investing in your family (but nice try).  It’s the cluelessness and privilege to think anyone just hops back into the job market after 20 years and funds something “fun”.[/quote]

Well, I worked at a pizza place and as a greeter at the gym. That one was fun. fast food experience was hell. Ya'll forgot about child care. I think patient people are always needed in that sector. and it's fun.[/quote]
