I (ashamedly) do. The Countess does charity things a lot. I don't know about her job - she just divorced The Count, so she'll probably have to do something. Bethenny is a personal chef. Jill owns and runs Zarin Fabrics with her husband. Ramona runs a jewelry company with her husband.
If I had a bigger house, it would require a lot more upkeep, for sure. A one-bedroom apartment, no, not a 40 hour job. But there's also laundry, grocery shopping, errands, bills, maintenance (if you own), all kinds of stuff I wish I had time for!
I'm just saying I don't really think it's fair to say someone else's choice should make them feel inadequate, if that IS the thing they're passionate about. There are still a lot of women out there that feel they should serve their husband and take care of him. You and I might not agree with that sentiment, but if it works for them (and they are, most importantly, happy and fulfilled in that life, then more power to them.
