Happy Wife Happy Life

By
Industry Observer

Happy wife, happy life is one of my favorite sayings, I say that to clients all the time; I actually made a sale from it; the guy thought it was so unusual. There actually has been a study made of this and it is true. They say a man is generally more satisfied with his life if his spouse is happy. I just had to share this with my rainer family hopefully this adds a smile to all of you!

Yolanda, now this does not surprise me!  Guys I know who work hard to keep their wives happy do seem to have a better time of it in all of their life domains!

There is another saying that I have heard that is very similar....if Momma ain't happy, nobody's happy.  You have a great husband, and I know you are a great wife, and happy, too!

Happy wife, happy life is a very good tagline that may be suitable for the current ActiveRain challenge.

"Happy wife, happy life" is a great mantra to live by. . .if you're a guy!  I know if you can meet a wife's emotional needs with a house, and a husband's financial ones, you can usually put a deal together!

Hi Yolanda, what a great picture of you and Bob in Paris! It is so true, I've seen it over and over that the wife is the one buying the house! P.S. my girls went ice skating on the Eiffel Tower when we were in France, December of 2004. One of the best days of my life.

Hi Yolanda, Lovely photo of you and yours!  My husband lives by this mantra but adds: "my wife's happiness is my happiness as long as my happiness is hers too.

Yes, it's very true Yolanda.  I have an agreement with my wife.  She gets to make all the little decisions and I'm in charge of the major ones.  In all our years of marriage, luckily, there have been no major decisions.

Hopefully the majority of you will not find this statement too un-PC. I totally agree with you and I think most home buying choices are made by the wife for man & wife married situations. I find it is somewhere between 70-30 to 80-20 the percentage for the wife likes and needs. cheers cvc
