Poets and philosophers have debated the value of a good man for ages. Insure.com quantifies it and the number is $23,344.

The website produces an annual index which uses average wages from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate the value of traditional tasks that dads do at home. “Dads benefited from wage increases for drivers, teachers, coaches and plumbers,” said Amy Danise, editorial director for Insure.com, in a press release about the report.
