How Much a Mom Is Worth?

Happy Mother's Day!!

I have been a mom for 27 years, both a working mom and a stay at home mom. It is THE best job that I could ever imagine because the pay is hugs and kisses. Well, around age 12, the pay is a lot of eye rolls and shut doors, but still totally worth it.

I have never really thought about what the monetary value of being a mother. But, Insure.com had itemized out the pay for a mothers job. According to the website, mothers should be paid an annual income of over $71,297, a 3.5% pay increase from last year for 13 jobs that they perform. Here is a break down.
