She made much less than 138K a year so I guess she's getting a raise! Cool, my wife is quitting her job to stay at home with our son.

I think that if I put an ad in the classifieds asking for someone to work 18 hours a day, cooking, cleaning, watching the kids, etc., it would probably take about $30,000 to $45,000 a year.And that person probably would not do as good of a job as my wife does. But it does mean that I need to have about $300,000 of life insurance on her so I can pay for that person when she is gone.

I think the shareholders of Home Depot would beg to differ. I find it interesting that the Wall Street Journal claim that the pay for a CEO of a company that make no profits would be zero.
