[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just left my biglaw job to stay at home. I was making $560k. My husband makes much more than I do and we have a lot of savings, so it wasn’t a big deal financially, but I still have a lot of angst about it. I actually love(d) my job, and it makes me sad that it will be very difficult to find a path back. [/quote] Do you take any steps to protect yourself financially, like a postnup? How do you get comfortable that you're not saving in your own name anymore, for example, no more 401k contributions, and possibly, no more control over how future income is saved and invested because you don't have a paycheck? Asking because I'm hung up on these issues and still working. [/quote] Why in the world would you do that. You make more than enough to hire full-time live in help. [/quote]
