Sahm vs working?

Question

If there is any how did some of you moms transition from working to staying at home? And how did you transition from two incomes to one?

Answer

Budgeting works great. Food planning. Cut spending on things that you don't need and buy wisely. A SAHM salary is not remunerated but it's worth a 100k in US between cleaning, cooking, taking care of your own children, doing grocery shopping each week. I learned to buy second hand and thrift a lot, I go to various places for my groceries to be on budget, if you go to only one place you end up expending too much.

Answer

Cutting back and government assistance.

Answer

Budget. USE COUPONS my husband says ive became a bit obsessed wit coupons but hey they have saved us so much. and cut out unnecessary buys like fast food and things of that nature

Answer

I was working til I found out I was pregnant and quit because it took us 6 years to conceive and I wasn't about to lose this baby bc of a job (While it was good paying it was stressful and extremely strenuous) we have made it work and actually are better off in some ways as I couldn't afford insurance while I was working but now get free health care.  We budget budget budget and learned to live within our means. Cut unnecessary things like cable, eating out, etc (Still eat out on special occasions ) also my husband has a little side hobby of buying and selling (vintage video games) that brings in some extra money. We also save money by buying clothing second hand and don't go 'shopping' just for the sake of buying something new or bc of boredom.  I was a sahm for nearly 10 years b4 I started  working again so knew we could do it on one income. Luckily now we have 2 cars bc in the past we've had just 1 before and that makes it even harder.

Answer

You just have to budget. It's well worth it though:)

Answer

Cut back a lot and budgeted.
