Have a good contract worked out with my wife with a reasonable billing rate for helping around the house, quality time, tutoring our kids, etc. However, she recently got a promotion at work and I’m worried that this is going to bump us up into a better tax bracket. Wanted to get a sense of what the market out there looked like and whether it was time to renegotiate my rate.
What?
TC?
yoe?
I read the headline and I thought you charged your wife money for being her husband. And then I thought dang that’s a missed opportunity for me! Then I thought wow basically I want to be a prostitute. Lastly I thought yeah whatever as long as I make a little more money.
Thanks for taking us through your roller coaster of emotions
I don’t like to think about it as charging money to be her husband but on the other hand I do think that my time is valuable
What's your current rate? How many hours a week do you work? Do you get health insurance and retirement?
I don’t think you understand how tax brackets work
Uh I don’t think you understand how our household works
Do tell! I thought both of you file taxes separately otherwise increasing the hourly rate will not matter since the money stays in the household. But then why are you worried about her promotion? Also, what does she bring to the table? I mean, does she charge you for cooking or sex? Please explain.
Are you ghar jamhai?
Only way you’ll get a raise is if you get a counter offer or switch jobs
As her husband? What kind of sick reply is this?
