Based on the usual wage rates of housekeepers, cooks, dieticians, practical nurses and other persons who get paid for doing wifely chores (but not those of gainfully employed sexual partners), economists at Chase Manhattan Bank estimate that the U.S. housewife holds the equivalent of a 99.6-hr, job paying $13,391.56 a year.
