My husband, who had a successful career but is not yet 40, wants to retire and look after our kids while actively investing our money. I enjoy consulting and will gladly keep working.

Has anybody been down a similar path and have advice?

Lastly, I’ve seen quite a big salary range for MBA hires. Anyone care to share the latest? TIA.
