Moms Should Earn $138,095

Salary.com is a website devoted to keeping track of the average salary for different types of jobs. They get pretty specific based on experience and location too. Their personal salary calculator asks, “What are you worth?”

I found out today that they have a calculator for stay-at-home moms. Salary.com claims that the typical mother does about 10 jobs: housekeeper, cook, day care center teacher, laundry machine operator, van driver, facilities manager, janitor, computer operator, chief executive officer and psychologist.

That seems about right. I just hope my wife doesn’t attempt to start charging me. I couldn’t afford her. :-)
