[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the insightful and cogent analysis PP.  Seriously.

I didn't know the etiquette rule about taking about a husbands earnings.  It is presumed that every post about HHI includes a spouses earnings whether singular or combined (unless the household doesn't include a spouse). If this is off limits or tacky, I won't mention it again.

I definitely used slang in the title- my bad (pun intended) .  I didn't intend to turn anyone off, alienate, or cheerlead, it is sort of the way I talk sometimes (for better or worse).  I definitely could have said "does anyone have a spouse in biglaw who saw an increase in draw and distribution recently", maybe I will try that approach next time

Big law is the industry I'm interested in learning about I'm not curious if partners in a medical practice or lobbyists or hedge fund guys are seeing an uptick.

If outrageously successful is solely base on earning, then he does well.  If you incorporate other personality traits and characteristics into it, depending on what they are, he is probably not outrageously successful.

I don't want it to seem like DH is not around very much, he is, but unfortunately much of the time it's not all that pleasant because he's super stressed out and being pulled in too many directions.

This is the life he's chosen for now and we're trying to make the best of it, but in this day and age of economic uncertainty it really does help to have some cushion as it affords is more options and we have fewer disagreements over money.[/quote]
