  • New Poll Question?

    Any ideas for a new poll question for the homepage? I can't think of any burning issues right now Does anyone have a poll question they're dying to ask 8)

      How about questions related to the site:

      What do you and your spouse find to be the biggest stressor in your marriage? (choices being finances, time at work, s-e-x, parenting, etc)
      or:
      Who do you turn to for help/support when your spouse is on a time consuming/difficult rotation? (choices being family, close friend, no one, internet support site, etc)
      or:
      If you could change one thing about your spouse's chosen profession what would it be? (choices being less hours at work, more money, less stress, or things like that)
      or (one that isn't related to the site but isn't necessarily politically charged):
      What would you do with a million dollars? (that's a fun one I think - choices being something like spend it all, save half spend half, invest, give to charity - picking multiple options would be nice on that one)

        What about:

        Has your spouse's medical training interfered with the timing of starting a family?

        -Yes, we are waiting until we are further along in the training process
        -Yes, we are waiting until after training is complete
        -No, we started/are starting a family during medical school
        -No, we started/are starting a family during residency
        -Other

          How about "How in debt are you? We're not counting mortgage if you have one, but credit cards and school loans only"

          a) 10K-30K
          b) 30K-50K
          c) 50K-70K
          d) 70K-100K
          e) 100K-200K
          f) Less than what Bill Gates makes a year but not much less

                I third Thu Van's idea--that's one of the things that I'm curious about but I would never ask anyone directly. I think we should specify what type of debt, though, and whether it should include 2nd mortgages, school loans, etc., or just credit card debt.

                  OK, obviously I didn't read Thu Van's entire message--she already said it includes credit cards and school loans.

                    I like how Thu Van's question automatically assumes that everyone is at least 10K in debt.

                      I like the debt question as well - I'm curious about it but this keeps it anonymous!
