It doesn't matter what career you're in anymore. There is a better than 50/50 chance that even a dedicated, loving, stay at home mom that cooks, cleans, and vacuums every day is going to get shat on by her dream lawyer or doctor husband. I've seen it a hundred times.

Trophy wife = (half your age) + 7 years

I've actually counseled my son, who wants a career as a naval aviator, NOT to get married. How sad is that? He says, "But you and mom have stayed together." True. So far, I can't come up with an honest answer as to how...

Holy crap, that's nearly the exact formula for my 'significant other' and I... only in reverse: I'm 39 and he's 29. ;)
 
Rez,

I completely respect your position because I know that you believe it is the best situation for your family.

Now, in MY opinion, I would NEVER recommend staying home to anyone. It was the most boring years of my life. I am so glad it is almost over and I never actually did all the domesticated things I'm sure you make your wife do. I always had a cook and a cleaning lady and the kids had nannies, the only thing I did insist on is that my kids study hard in school, that they play hard in sports, and they have fun in life. We laughed a lot and hugged a lot, that's it. That's all I did. I left the dirty work for the hired help. And I still found it boring. I loved the kids to pieces but I think that raising kids is not as rewarding as some would like you to believe. I would not recommend it as a fulfilling career.

If you don't mind me asking what do you do? What does your husband do? How do you afford to have hired help for almost everything?
