Now if he wants to stay at home that's another story.

you also have to consider personality. I know I'd be miserable staying at home (I don't have that homemaker instinct AT ALL) and I would work solely for my sanity.

Not everyone is cut out to stay at home. I'm definitely not.
I could have written your exact post 15 years ago. Never say never. I never planned to be a SAHM, before or after I was married. We had kids and decided life would be better if one of us stayed home. I've been a SAHM for 10 years. I still don't have the homemaker instict, but this is what works for our family.
