Take away the cleaning and my high priced sex, I am near as good of a SAHP as there is. WIth 3 kids, I am worth no more than the 30k including What vegetables I grow for seasonal eating and putting up because I do that on a pretty large scale, more than most working parents could do. The vegetable growing is a very low paying job on an hourly basis so it isn’t much. I do car repairs and take care of 20 acres in a pretty minimal fashion….keep a safe fire zone.[/quote]
Russ – you need to market yourself better. You aren’t just veggie gardening and maintaining 20 acres – you’re “managing the family business”. That’s worth more, even if it’s the same work.[/quote]
I am just afraid to look at this thing realistically.Like I said, my wife would have to get 2 jobs. If we were in Vegas I would be quite expensive. My full value would definitely hurt the family …but I am an evil man so why should I care?
It’s a beautiful day to have the freedom of a sahp ! I wonder what those cubicles that all those power mongering workers are sitting in are like?
