How much money can make you happy?
I keep stunning people because of my life choices. My husband is a stay-at-home dad and takes care of our two daughters. We decided this was the best thing to do as my job brings more money than his. Thus our kids get to spend more time with us. As a flight attendant, I don't need to be stressed out about child care if a flight is delayed and I'm allowed to take a nap after work if I am tired.
Many of my collegues don't understand how we can make it with one salary. They think I am hard-up and struggle to make ends meet. But truth is, I have never been a fan of jettisonning money. I need neither fancy clothes nor the latest electronic gadget to be happy. So we save that money for things that bring us joy like discovering new places, having fun together or learning languages...

This is excellent - your English is quite advanced. I think 'surprising' works better for the word choice. You do stun them, but it is better to write "People are stunned by my life choices." / I used the word 'because' due to the cause-effect of the ideas in the sentences. / I changed the period to a comma because 'so' is a conjunction and it is used to join two independent sentences (it is okay to begin that sentence with 'so', but joining the ideas allows the reader to follow your train of thought a little easier.

If you are happy you no need to be rich. You are a smart person and can enjoy the little things in life. Actually love and being loved gives more happiness then a bunch of paper or coins... You sure are a great example for your daughter, they must be proud of you.
