Trad wife

WHATSA TRAD WIFE? Guess some woman has a Utube called this.  She cooks, cleans, reads to kids with lots of humor and tips celebrating making a nest.  Feminists are going insane at her. Let me point out “Millionaire Next Door” of  2000 showed that vast majority of the rich in USA are unassuming people living modest lives.  Svetlana Mayer explains, “In Soviet Russia, there were rich people under communism.  Most of us barely survived, but there is always someone who can live on half what the public payment is and invest it.” Authors of MND found that 85% of millionaire men had stay-at-home wives, but not simply because they could afford it.  2/3 did that from the beginning. A good home manager, organizer, nurturing mom is a powerful advantage when a couple lives on a very small budget.  I was blessed to wed Shirley.  We started 5 businesses, not all successful, but we survived them all with her saavy and work. We bought old disaster houses which I re-engineered but she put the touches in.  They sold for awesome money.  I chuckle at how our church always looks over at her when a meal is needed. Nobody else cooks? Guess they are hooked on her dill pickles. We never ate out. Her picnics in the park, at the lake, were more fun.  3 kids of our own but we raised 9 teenagers and then another 4 mentor kids. Yes, I know, not everyone’s lifestyle. But we have had fun.
