At what point income wise do you think professional athletes and their wives stop doing basic house cleaning. You know, dishes, mopping, sweeping, picking up underwear off the floor, toilet cleaning, etc.? ......Money wise when does it become afternoon margaritas on the rocks with salt for the wives?

i have a hellavu answer for this question. my inside scoop told me the exact equation to this problem. and since inception, the wife & i havent fought since.
i’ll post the answer later this afternoon once i get approval to post such highly coveted info from my source.
Immediately, well for the high maintenance trophy wives anyway.
I just make my dog do the chores. That's right, finish dusting and then sweep the floor. If you want to eat tonight, you'll do as I say!
I’d say as soon as they move into their brand new house that eventually they might not be able to afford? I think it comes down to a couple things, obviously the ones with stupid money probably don’t lift a finger but the ones that still remain down to earth and are not “Flashy” type personality’s probably include household chores as part of having a close knit family
Wait a minute, you missed a spot over in the corner, get it in gear if you want a bowl of Alpo tonight!
Did I say you can take a break? No, I didn't, now get back to work, that laundry isn't going to wash itself. You'll do it, if you want to eat tonight!
the most valuable thing any person on earth has is time.
the very second they have enough money to afford house cleaning, they would be foolish to waste time doing any of it that they could be spending with family.

that answer should be coming any minute…
Believe it or not household chores can help bring a family together. Ofcourse in my house it causes epic battles but in most cases it’s good for the well being of the household
That's right, get those dishes done, and they better be spotless. You'll do it, or your belly won't be filled with chow tonight!
In that situation I would make sure first and foremost that my mom and dad are taken care of in regard to the posters question. Without them and their guidance chances are you would not be in the position you are now in.
You know you're getting old when Alice is starting to look good.
Alice is starting to look good. 😕
The rich athlete's wives can't do any of that. It might break their inch long, custom painted fingernails. LOL
If you want your daily rations, you best finish ironing that shirt, I don't have a tolerance for slackers. Get to it!
bombshell answer coming in 3, 2…..
The family cat isn't getting off the hook either.
"If you insist on taking naps on the couch, you'll clean it up afterwards. You best vacuum up that leftover fur, or you'll find yourself going to bed without your meow mix!"
maybe fire hydrant will regale us with his earth-shattering news after he takes out the trash
you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet
Hahahahaha!
ok, sorry. my internet connection has been pretty spotty today. so. i finally got the “a-ok” to reveal the answer to the question. what you do is multipl
Smart Man.......don't rock the boat!
What else is there? ......Obvious but wise......that which stares us in the face is so hard to see. WONDERFUL OBSERVATION!...Craig44. You made my day.....THANK YOU.
Best post EVER!.......
So true. The number one thing the wealthy can do with their money is buy time. Pay to skip lines, pay to have transportation immediately available, pay to have chores done for them, etc.
Styx may disagree. Apparently they have too much time on their hands…
O.k., I don't take out the trash. I want to but they won't let me. The problem is this.....the red container goes out every week. The grey container every other week......WITH the red one. The red one is for common trash. Like taco wrappers, ear plugs, and magazines that I pick up at the liquor store. The ones they keep behind the counter. Stuff like that. The grey one is for recycling.... around here that means beer cans, beer bottles, wine bottles, empty vodka, tequila, whiskey bottles.....you get the picture. Anyway,....I get mixed up 😵 about which week the red one goes out by itself and when to take the grey one and the red one out together. When that happens, the trashman won't pick them up. The Lovely Mrs. Hydrant does not like that. So......she take out the trash. I watch her do it . She wants me to call Waste Management and tell them that the red container needs a new wheel. I dont do it because I like to watch her struggle with the broken wheel. It's sexy. Anyway,....the red container needs a new wheel.
I would tell you more about the trash situation around here but I have to sign off because Nicole and Brook want to ride their bicycles now and the tires need air. That's a job I can handle. By the way......last night Nicole filled up the wheelbarrow with rocks and dumped them in the open drain pipe in the grove (Washington Navels) so that she doesn't drive her bike into it. OUCH!!!! I watched her do it. I like to watch the girls work. It's easy.
