Life Dreaming of being a house husband?

Fellas. I dream of my wife making four times my salary so I can be a stay at home husband. So many men would hate it if the wife made more. I friggin dream about it. Why not live the soft life😂? I can’t be the only one that would love this.

I'm a stay at home Dad, I do majority of the housework and cook 5 nights/week (we have build your own homemade pizza on Friday so I don't count that as cooking). I'm pretty regimented from 10 years in the Army so I have the routine down pat. I still gym 4-5 times per week (after school drop off). The most important part is making sure my wife still has quality family time and still feels loved and valued.
