Would you be a SAHM for a year if it meant depleting most of your savings?

    No. I feel uncomfortable enough already with the amount we have in savings, and it's enough to cover a few major repairs or a couple of months of expenses if something were to happen to one of our jobs. We're actively working on putting more into there and I can't imagine how nuts and scared I'd be if we had nothing and had to start from scratch. I'd also be worried about finding something after a year.

    But my 5-year-goal is to be a WAHM

    No, I would really want to, but would not do it. I would try to cut my days and hours back so that we could continue to save, and I could spend more time at home though.

    No way. We have worked far too hard to build up our savings and I worked far too hard education-wise to not work. Even a year out could really set me back in my career.
