ProZ.com Staff Local time: 02:37 PERSONAL DEL SITIO	May 3, 2012 This forum topic is for the discussion of the poll question "Are you the main breadwinner in your home?".

Mary Worby   Reino Unido Local time: 10:37 Miembro alemán al inglés + ...	50:50 May 3, 2012 We both contribute pretty much the same amount. Some months he earns more, some months I do. Sometimes it gets competitive at the end of the month to see who will make 'Employee of the Month'!   Subject: Comment: The contents of this post will automatically be included in the ticket generated.

Sonia Atkinson   Local time: 10:37 Miembro 2010 italiano al inglés + ...	Yes, at present May 3, 2012 I didn't used to be, but my husband was made redundant a couple of years ago. He set up his own company, but his particular sector is apparently leading the recession at present and so he is in the process of shutting down and coming up with another idea. I'm therefore the sole breadwinner in our house at the moment. Edited to add we also have two small children, so I'm supporting all four of us and paying a big mortgage on my own. It is stressful at times, but I'm scraping through each month [Edited at 2012-05-03 13:51 GMT]   Subject: Comment: The contents of this post will automatically be included in the ticket generated.

Paula Hernández Local time: 11:37 Miembro 2008 inglés al español + ...	Glad I am not May 3, 2012 As Mary commented, we both share that responsibility. If I was the sole provider I wouldn't have any hair left, so much stress!   Subject: Comment: The contents of this post will automatically be included in the ticket generated.

Lisa Simpson, MCIL   Reino Unido Local time: 10:37 Miembro 2010 portugués al inglés + ...	Count 'only' as 'main' May 3, 2012 It's just interesting to see how many people can make a living solely out of translation (or other language-related work: interpreting/teaching) and/or even support others in the process. All quick polls are flawed by the very nature of their brevity. I'm mainly trying to get a picture of what percentage bear the burden of being the main/sole breadwinner.   Subject: Comment: The contents of this post will automatically be included in the ticket generated.

Elizabeth Joy Pitt de Morales   Local time: 11:37 Miembro 2007 español al inglés + ...	One and only May 3, 2012 My husband lost his job over a year ago and since then I've been the one-and-only breadwinner. He's a programmer and is working on a game app, but that won't be ready for some time yet. Fortunately, business is fairly good and we've been able to keep our heads above water despite the dire economic situation here.   Subject: Comment: The contents of this post will automatically be included in the ticket generated.
