How Much Is Mom Worth? $117,000, Site Says

Working At Home Would Often Add Overtime Pay
POSTED: 10:51 am EDT May 9, 2008

If a stay-at-home mom could be financially compensated, she'd bring home nearly $117,000 a year.

That's according to an annual pre-Mother's Day study released by Salary.com, which studies workplace compensation.

For the past eight years, Salary.com has calculated mothers' market value by studying pay for tasks such as child care and housekeeping.

This year's stay-at-home mom figure is $116,805 per year, while the working mom figure is $68,405. Both are down from last year because of a change in study methodology.
The range of at-home value for a working mother varies from $36,680 to $104,767, according to the site.

The numbers were based on a survey of moms who averaged a 94-hour workweek. If moms were in the workplace, they'd be spending more than half their working hours on overtime.
Salary.com also provides a tool that allows you to calculate the value of the mother in your life and even cut a pretend check for that amount.

This is precisely why PIA can sit on her butt and I have to work. I make less than the "working" mom figure. Like by 1/3!!! I think I should quit my job and start staying at home and collecting.


Happy mothers day to anyone who is a mother, step-mother, grandmother, mother in waiting, mother of an angel. Heck HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY EVERYONE!!
