I took the careerpill in my 20s and now I can make mid 6 figures at a tech company. I make slightly less because I only work remote now so that I can be with my kid as much as possible. Before we had kids my husband said hed be a stay at home dad no problem, but it turns out he's not cut out for it so he's been working on a breakfast brunch place business. It's been 2 years and it makes zero profit. I put very little effort in my job and just show up to meetings and do the minimum. I low key want to be fired but I can't quit because we need money for our kid. I don't need to replace my full income just partial would be enough to live. Literally all I want is to be a mom. I hate this meme world and I hate that I have such a high earning potential. I'm not sure if my husband is retarded or lazy or both, he's a reasonable person but I feel like he doesn't try that hard because he can always fall back on my income and our home (which he inherited and shares with me)

I would love some sort of small business I can do at home with kids around (none or few video calls) nothing that requires filming or quiet works either - at first i considered youtube about my career bc it has high search volume. anyway so what other ideas you got? im willing to try stuff. maybe selling slime online or something like that? I just want to nuke my career before it destroys my marriage. Thanks bros

society has devalued your husband potential thus most men have little drive, you played a part in this by being a career women, so you can thank all the women like you for pigeon holing yourselves into being the new high earners, the new breadwinners. fucking sucks doesn't it

Speaking from experience as a fellow techie that has run small-ish ecom businesses (mid 6 fig revenue to low 7 figures), a small business is *way* more consuming than any sort of "phone it in" job.

You can't really take any time off without the business taking a dive, and if you want to match your current income, a fair rule of thumb is you can make ~10% of your revenue in personal take-home if you're running 70% margins or better.

Managing employees, vendors, taxes, ads, etc are all way more labor-intensive than most W-2 jobs outside of IB/PE. It'll also take at least a few years to get to the point where you can safely take a salary without sabotaging the business.


I'd look into doing small-scale multifamily section 8 investing in red states where you can pay 70-80k per door. Tom Cruz on TikTok/IG has some decent resources, and I'm a fan of InvestWithAce on IG.

Expect to be able to get ~10% of your total invested cash in personal income, so if you invest 500k cash, you can probably take home about 50k per year. This compounds over time with re-financing properties, 1031 exchanges, etc.

Lot of tax benefits once you can qualify for the "real estate professional" tax status, where you don't have a W-2 job taking the majority of your time. Requirements are 800-900 hours of work per year in real estate, but you can take advantage of a lot of depreciation that will likely make your tax burden negative.

Friends of mine in the field aren't able to do it full-time when they're under 10-15 doors, so expect it to be a 3-5 year time span before you can "retire" from your tech job.

Yeah we've had a few arguments about it. He really thinks the breakfast place will take off this year. And it's possible. He gets frustrated bc he feels like I don't believe in him.

And when the argument gets heated he says "just quit, we'll figure it out" but i cant quit a phone it in job, i feel like its way too selfish, the job gives us so many benefits and we save a lot, which we want to put towards buying a rental.

i feel like my kid gets a lot of attention and love. we take care of her without help from outside the family, just us and grandparents. we do ok. i just want to do more, always be there for her instead of being gone 1-2 hours for calls, i want to do better meal prep and learning activities for her. im also probably pregnant again and all I can think about is how hard this job is going to make my life. its 100% the calls that kill me. im also really good at presenting so they always have me do that even though im not even the most senior person - but i do it so i can slack on everything else. overall it's a great deal and im just profiting off some bug in late stage capitalism but i can't help looking at my kid and wanting to do more

I just dont understand why you are here complaining about wanting to have your cake and eat it too. We are all dealing with the consequences of the fucked up world. It sounds like you are better off than 99% of people, yet here you are. Take the good with the bad. You and your husband both agreed to the terms of your relationship. Now your sick of it and you are quietly growing resentful. Be happy with your situation, there is a lot to be happy about. You are never going to be that happy mom who stays at home with her little kids while your husband goes and works.

your kid is already growing up with you at home during the day which is something most dont get to experience. what do you WANT to do OP? it sounds like youre just bored with your line of work and want that to be different. if you really believe the restaurant has a chance, maybe try to see that to completion until the second kid comes around. or talk to your husband about making the restaurant thing less open ended, if its not successful after some span of time. especially if restaurant isnt successful after the second kid is born, maybe he'll realize on his own that he'll need to let the idea go. but restaurants arent something you can half ass and be successful with.

Op this situation sucks but it’s the modern world. If it makes you feel better I have evil women working above me that are fucking me over and they have terrible families. I’d much rather work with a mommy that does the bare minimum. At least I’d be able to have no stress. Kudos to you for gritting through it.

Your husband is probably on to something but restaurants are THE HARDEST business with no margins. Maybe he needs to apply for a liquor license. Bars make about 12k a month just on alcoholics buying Budweiser.

You, being the provider is as inverted as me working for psychotic cunts. I’m sorry but it’s how the world is right now.

Been in business for 9 years. The first 3 years I didn't take a pay check and put everything back into the company. Over time I've slowly built it up and hired employees. I pay myself decent now but not what I was making prior. Of course this doesn't bother me because I'm building up my assets every year so I can sell in the future. A restaurant is different in that you don't build up assets. If he can't pull a decent salary within 5 years then he should sell and find something different.

As to your feelings, yea your situation sucks but that's life. As parents we must do what's best for our kids and if you focus on that atleast you can find some relief.

From what you're saying you're in a generally really good position
>Work from home
>Low amount of work hours
>High pay
>Can dedicate a lot of time for your kid
>You own your own real estate (your husband)
The only problem is your husband not earning enough? You not dedicating those extra 2 hours a day to your kid? Therefore you want to quit in order to force your husband to work more and to spend more time with your kid?
Honestly you sound retarded, be happy with that which you have
Your husband trying to run a business isn't much of a problem as long as you can afford it (and from the looks of it, you can), worst case scenario he'll gain a lot of useful experience he wouldn't have been able to get any other way that'll help him further in his career
So long as he's happy, leave the man be
To me it sounds like you're more unhappy with his "status" as a "hustler" instead of manager/doctor/engineer status.
I assume you're probably comparing your husband to husbands of your friends or something, and feel like you don't have "enough bragging material" like your friends do.
My advice is to stop being a nigger

I will believe for just half a second that you are actually a woman (you will never be one btw) and say that you could basically do what you want and you don't even need a small business (remember, you want to stay at home and even small things require care and time). You can literally stake half your actual wage rn on XOR and in a couple of months you would be generating your current wage on dividends. So, do that instead
