We are having this interesting conversation in my home, I’ve been stay at home Mom for 20 years and now preparing for re-entry, I will make 1/3 of what my husband earns. I, we sacrificed in order for me to be home and now my wages will never catch up to his. I have no regrets though.
I have a nephew who wanted to play around and now in his thirties realized he should have been making a strong work record.
Family is a must, but truely a choice as is going to work.
Work more, get more. Work less, get less.
In general comparable women to men get paid more from what I read in the past.
