Worth going back to work?

Question

Is anyone else trying to decide if it's worth it to go back to work or if their family will rely on one income?

Do you think it's worth it to go back to work for 4 days per week for $200 before taxes? That's with daycare being taken out already. I'm so undecided and I really only have a few weeks left in this pregnancy.

Answer

I feel like if you're only bringing home that much after daycare it's not worth it and you can find ways to save money that will make up for that $200. Good luck to you and whatever you decide!

Answer

Even if you just break even it might be worth it to you to keep your foot in the door, depending on the industry and your longer term career plans. Finances are a big part of the decision, but not all of it!

Answer

I am the type of person that I have to work. I tried the sahm thing and it is not for me ... I completely lost my individuality and went into a depression. But kudos to every woman who does..

Answer

How many kids do you have? I want to work but its not really beneficial with 3 kids and daycare, gas and food that has to be spent to to work.
