<prompt> Human: I take home 707 a week, after healthcare for the three of us and putting 55 into a 401k and 10 into a savings account. My wife, if she goes back to work, would take home 603. If this happens we have to put our little bundle of joy into daycare at about 400 per week.Ultimately, if we both work, and do daycare, we will be in the red about 800, and our son doesnt get the benefit of having his parents every day all day. If my wife doesnt work, we are in the red about 1100, and our son does get the opportunity to be with her.If I can vent for 30 seconds... Ive been trying to work with my wife for years we have been married 4 years on developing a structure for a small home business, to make up the difference, based around her sewing and fashion design skills. I have presented her with Etsy, and Amazon, and a couple other options. I have spent a couple thousand dollars buying her equipment and supplies, building her tables and other such things. But she doesnt seem to be motivated to do anything serious. I work anywhere between 50-60 hours a week, and take care of the manly chores in the house, including dishes, lawn, plants, trash, gardens, etc... So I dont have time to manager her, the house and my own business... ventThe following are our expenses. Hack away.
