Having a Stay-at-Home Spouse Increases Your Chance For Promotion

Stay-at-home spouses are becoming part of the package for promotability. That stay-at-home slot will be a "job" as real and demanding as any go-out-to-work one. The organization might even issue an informal list of expectations for the partner on the home front.

Therefore, the partner who goes off to work must have a job that pays enough to make this arrangement worth it. Consequently, you will find most of these stay-at-home "jobs" in fields like financial services, law, corporate management, and successful entrepreneurship.
