Ann Romney "At Home" with $20 Million a Year
It doesn't matter whether Ann Romney stayed at home to raise her five sons. Nobody cares.
What matters is that she stayed at home to be a full-time mom with millions of dollars of annual income. Maybe when her sons were young the family income was lots less than the $20 million annually of recent years. Maybe it was only 10%, only $2 million a year.
That's still an awful lot of money.
I raised five sons and a daughter. Sometimes I was a full-time stay-at-home mom; sometimes I was a married working mom; and sometimes I was a single parent working mom. In any of these situations I sure would have been glad to have millions of dollars in annual income.
Think how different being a mom is when you've got bushels of money! You can hire household help - lots of it. Someone else can cook, clean up the kitchen, do the laundry, fold the clothes, do the marketing, pick up the kids, wash the dog (when he's not on the roof of the car). Someone else can go to the dry cleaners, sweep the porch, call the plumber, make the beds, pick up after the kids, pick up after the kids, pick up after the kids. Someone else can bake the birthday cakes, wrap the presents, address the holiday cards, take your various Cadillacs to be serviced, schedule the pediatrician appointments and the dentist appointments and the barber shop appointments. Someone else can take the kids to get shoes and school clothes. Someone else can make sure teeth are brushed and ears are clean.
You get the picture.
