6 Reasons Why Moms should Work

Financially Independent
Today, I read a magazine that reminds me once again about how important for Moms to have their own ‘bread’, not only for themselves but also for the family.

And herewith, I will say the 6 reasons:
  1. By having personal income, Moms can help their husband to fulfill the family needs. Two is stronger than one, anyway.
  2. Minimize the Risk of Family Financing, if something unwanted happened to their husband (accident, fired, etc), Moms still have incomes, that hopefully can run the family.
  3. With more than one source of income, means more money. That makes the whole family can live better and have more choices on doing the savings and investment.
  4. Working moms will have more self confidence, instead of the chance to explore themselves. They will be proud of what they’ve done.
  5. Moms who are entrepreneurs are even better. Who knows that someday when their husband retired, together they can develop the small business into a family business?
  6. By having their own income, Moms can buy whatever they want (of course within their own financial range); it means Moms don’t have to have a disagreement with their husband if they want to buy something that might be considered “unimportant”.

But like I mentioned months ago, a working woman (Moms) should not forget their family. Remember that Moms working not for competing with their husband. Family comes first.

Maybe Moms have more reasons to work?
