So someone wants to take on a 2nd job in order to pay someone to do a job, they could do, if they didn't have the 2nd job?
yes but the 2nd job would pay more than the cost of the chores. it's not an even split

I'm having trouble wrapping my head around any lack of support for this. You're getting paid money (with leftover money) to do something fun. Some of your household chores are being done by a pro.

Could the second job pay for all of the chores?

SFP--I'm not ging back to your first post. Does your wife work? If so, then why wouldn't you both pay for help and not have any chores?
It seems very affordable with dual incomes, one being an attorney.

Use the income from the second job to pay the maid to clean the whole house. Less chores for everyone. Still seems fair since the second job is a hobby job and not taken out of necessity. Let the SO with the non-second job pick up the slack on general house pick up like making sure the counters are wiped down, things are picked up, stuff the maid doesn't do.
