Economically speaking, I'm fairly certain finding a wife is more expensive than a $8/hr freelancer though.

- dllthomas 14y agoDepends on what else you're getting out of the arrangement.
- wisty 14y agoA spouse might already be a sunk cost.
- kscaldef 14y agoIf your wife expects you to support her financially. Fortunately, such arrangements are no longer mandatory.
- TallGuyShort 14y ago... or if she expects to date you and be impressed before marrying you...
- edictive 14y agoThat’s right, you are not going to get any one cheaper to change your adult diapers. HA!
- nuje 14y agoI don't know if you're a rich guy planning to marry down in the social hierarchy, living in a culture where where women don't work or just a misogynist but this is generally false in the west. Dual incomes with a single household is very economical compared to life as a single. See eg. http://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/dinks.asp http://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/dinks.asp "A household in which there are two incomes and no children (either both partners are working or one has two incomes). DINKS are often the target of marketing efforts for luxury items such as expensive cars and vacations."
- Retric 14y agoExcept this if the wife can hear you working then it's probably not a dual income home. Edit: Prior probabilities yada yada.
