$138,000

If a stay at home mom were paid for her work, she would earn $138,000 per year. At least that's what the latest survey of salaries states. I disagree. If I could break down the duties performed by the typical stay at home mom it would go something like this:

  • Personal Chef: $60,000

  • Housekeeper: $24,000

  • Chauffeur: $50,000

  • Medic: $30,000

  • Laundry Service: $12,000

  • Accountant: $36,000

  • Family Counselor: $50,000

  • Childcare Giver: $20,000

  • Tutor: $ 7,000

  • Photographer: $20,000

  • Party Planner: $10,000

  • Pet Keeper: $ 5,000



Grand Total: $324,000
