    Well let me try it this way. I never have paid for a class, someone else did. But the best classes I ever had, you could not buy. The top two were not even in a college, the Naval Fire Control school
    and IBM management class. The Fire control school was developed at MIT, it was like taking an Engineering course from a fire hose. A four year course in 8 months. Sixty two guys started, 12 finished.
    The IBM management school at the time I attended was recognized as the best in the world. The best schooling by far, is taking on a new job. The most interesting I experienced was working with the Federal Reserve and getting them up on an online transaction processing system, the same one used by most of the major banks in the world. That was how they beat the rapid inflation of the late 70/ early 80s. A complicated process I will not go into here.

    Studied Agriculture, Psychology, Naval Architecture, and more, not by buying classes, just the books and read. It is surprising how much help one can find when you wish to know.

    I hope you're considerate enough to make sure any woman you get involved with knows that, so they can dump your domineering ass early.

    Maybe I'm weird, but in a perfect world I'd like to have a wife that didn't work.

    If she cooks, looks after the children and maintains the house, that to me is a full days work.

    I actually kind of lean towards this way of thinking too. You feel better when you earn things and honestly, you can't have it all when you're staying home.and only one spouse works. Want that fancy car? Get a job. Want that expensive house? Help out by getting a job. You're supposed to be a team working together. My wife and I have divorced parents, so our kid will have four sets of grandparents. Mine are already retired. So we don't need her to stay home full time. She already only works four days a week as is.

    Sounds good to me.

    Gives my hypothetical wife opportunity to pursue whatever hobby she wants (hopefully not fucking other men) when she's not busy during the day.

    I'm pretty sexist tbh, I don't put women/men on the same level. I'd say a man who isn't working is lazy, but a woman, IDK. A stay at home dad sounds funny lol, but not a stay at home mom. Why would I get married to someone who comes home pissed, doesn't clean shit because she's angry about some skinny bitch in accounting, like why even marry her if she's busy as fuck at work.

    Having a mother around benefits the children so much.

    The boys respect their mother, which turns into a respect for women.
    The girls respect their mother, and don't whore it up as they get older.

    tbh it's a win win fam

    I think the idea situation, is if your partner can get a part time job, working evenings. And you can come home a couple hours before she lives and watch the kid at night while she watches during the day.

    I agree that having a parent around is much better than daycare. Also, daycare is so expensive, it eats into a lot of your income anyway. But I think it's also good for an adult to get out of the house a bit each day to work, so your life isn't just a constant barage of taking care of baby. If you can arrange your schedules in that way, you can have the best of everything.

    On the idea of a man being a stay at home mom. I'm not against it, and it might be the way to go in certain situations. But I don't think it's good for a man to have have some income, or a way to support yourself if the need arose. If you're a man, and you were out of the workforce for years, many companies will not want to hire you. Also, you're in a spot of being dependant. If you want to buy something, you'd need to ask your wife first because she's earning all the money.

    I think it's more "natural" for the woman to stay at home and take care of the kids...just my two cents.

    But that's another reason why it's good for each person to keep at least a part time job.

    He did say, "in a perfect world. " In my perfect world, I'd make enough so the wife could handle the kids and all the personal shit. Who wouldn't want that? So I get that, but we don't live in that world, so yeah wifey must work.

    All this you cant do it on 1 income is b.s. I make 12.50 an hour and own my car and truck out right and just bought my first house before 30years old. I dont get to do fun shit but thats why i have nba league pass and drink like a fish. Make a budget and live with it

    I think it's great you are able to do that on your income.....as a(n apparently) single person. But bring a child into that single income household and NBA League Pass and booze would be history, no matter how you worked your budget.

    Good thing my ex aborted and started sleeping with other people then. Single life is key to success, fuck women and their eggs.

    But if I added a kid to my current situation, and they were my dependent, id qualify to suck from the government tit.

    And you bet your ass id teach my son to stay away from the succubus, if I had a daughter id just dumpster that shit like the Chinese

    I gave e a speech in public speaking about my positive view on life. Basically is doesnt matter if the glass is half empty or half full, if the substance inside is shit you arent drinking it.

    Life is shit and people are shit.

    Would parents around help kids not be pieces of shit? No. Because parents are pieces of shit. At the same time, babysitters and teachers are shit, so your kid is destined to be shit. Shit sandwich. Shit salad. Popcorn shit. Shit burgers. Shit shooters. Shit kebabs. Shit Alfredo.
