Having your wife look over your should could be a good thing. I bet you can accomplish some great family business meetings at work and also discuss budgets.

My wife and I are both designers (landscape architect and architect wanna-be's, respectively), but we do work in the same office. In fact, she can see my screen all day long. It's a running office joke... The home office reference was for my in-laws (which as it happens, also work together).

You must have a great marriage if you and your wife can work together in the home. What type of business do you have with your wife? @ Wojciech

As long as you trust the person you're working with, what's business is business and once you walk out of the (home office?), you are family again. It's tough sometimes, but it's also a lot more fun to work with people you love all day. My wife and I work together now and it's never been an issue. I have a permanent lunch partner. Great ideas, by the way, regarding pooling resources. There are about 4 or 5 projects in my head this very minute, but there's just not enough time to get going on any of them. Working with a friend or family member would get my ideas going, while leaving a lot of free time. Plus, it's always great to bounce ideas off someone else. Would definitely help when you have a case of writer's block. I’ve never found it a problem to work with family.

The more I think about it though, blogging wouldn't be passive income. It's more of a second job. There is a lot of time constraint if you are serious about it, and that doesn't guarantee any level of success with income. Between maintenance, building content, establishing relationships, customer service, etc, blogging is not very passive.
