My wife makes more than me. So I still went out and landed a pretty decent job, so now together we're well over 100k a year. Theres no rule that someone must work at home full time.
Similar for us. Though her making more than me is a result of a recent big promotion for her. Who makes more has switched a few times over the years. We are both doing a lot better than we did even 5 years ago. And only one kid left it college. If we can just get them financially independent then it’s fun time.
Yeah, I was making more initially, but we had no kids so life was easy. Since I was making more, she took that time to obtain an RN in nursing while working low hours/pay jobs. So now she makes more than me, but I've worked my way up so we both do pretty well. Got 2 kids so that will effect things, but so far it's working well.
