Answers: How much would that paycheck be every other week?
Well lets consider all the things a sahm does. Cooks, cleans, Drives kids to and from school. meetings, games, to meet friends, birthday parties etc. Goes to meetings at the school, volunteers time at school or other functions. Makes snacks because lets face it if the kids are breathing, they are hungry, Balances the checkbook, Decides which bills get paid with which check. Sits with the kids when they are sick, takes them to the doctor, gets thrown up on. Makes sure the kids have lunch money and proper clothing for school or anywhere. Listens to stories about how the school day went, councils them through problems with class. Should I go on? lol
So lets say roughly about 4000$ per check and that only because I took out the time when the kids are sleeping
about $3.00
If the job was done right I think it would be hard to put an appropriate price on it. I think it would be $2,000 - $3,000 or more.
let me see....your not paying rent, any bills....your using everything in the home....I'd say you may break about even...you may owe a few dollars...but you can work that off by doing yard work...or washing the car...
At least $1,200.00, and that would be a bargain!
