PreNups, Maiden Names, and Valuing the Unseen Work of Stay-at-Home Moms
Manage episode 437912810 series 3554061
Join me on this episode of Steel Rose's podcast as I unpack the layered emotions and practicalities surrounding prenuptial agreements. Listen in as I relay a spirited debate on whether safeguarding one's financial accomplishments is a prudent move or a sign of mistrust. I also touch on the broader issue of women keeping their maiden names after obtaining higher degrees—a decision that, like prenuptial agreements, is rooted in the desire to maintain personal achievements within a marriage.
Switching gears, we place a well-deserved spotlight on the unsung heroes of every household: stay-at-home moms. Referencing a fascinating study from Salary.com, we reveal just how valuable their roles truly are, estimating a staggering median annual salary of $184,000. By comparing this to the cost of living in New Jersey, we challenge the misconception that these women are "living for free" off their partners. Tune in to hear us dismantle common myths and provide an eye-opening perspective on the invaluable contributions of stay-at-home moms.
