I have worked outside the home and as a stay at home mom/wife; the only difference? I have more gratification of working from home as a SAHW or SAHM. Granted the PAY is better from an outside job; where you have to pay taxes, etc but the rewards I have been given from being home are better in the aspect of being there for my kids, doing more from the house, providing a healthier atmosphere, etc
Steemit has allowed me to earn, contribute to the platform and some day, to the household retirement fund.
