in the family, men normally earn more money than women, but nowdays, more and more power women, they are very good at business and so on. if you are men, can you bear your wife earn more money than you, or if you are women, do you mind your earning more than your husband?

I dont mind earning more money than my husband because right now I earn a little lower than my partiner but we bring all our money together then we budget for it as a whole and we dont diferentiate who brought more than the other. When two people come together in marriage they become one thing so even if a man becomes jobless and a wife is working they are still one and can budget for the money together. Thats my two cents.

i am a man. i think i don't care who earn more. but if i earn less , i will work harder. in morden times, woman can accept a good education as man do. so they find a good job is not a surprise thing. maybe they get more paid than man . some man think it is not balence.

I am a woman but am proud to state here that my husband has the guts to get me on a heigher side than him. I currently am employed and he is a partner in business. He is heading for a seperation with his partner and has plans to make me a share holder in the resultant company but the important part is he is going to give me heigher stake than himself making me the top shareholder of the business thereby giving me powers to take the top level decisions. He says he would be very happy to see doing this. Actually his target is that i become self dependent and wont be in trouble incase something happens to him.

Yes I would like to praise her. I would appreciate and pay thanks as she is earning more than me and she is sharing to participate to run the family well. The time has gone when the man of the family was only earning hand and others of the family used to spent the earning of the head of the family. Days come for every one to earn for themselves and for their family members. Wife and husband are two pillars of the building of a family. Both of them should as stable as they need about their family. Both should earn as much as they can. Otherwise you can become poor which is not good.

I am a husband. My wife earning is less then mine. I do not like to have my wife more money. If she has much money then she will use those money for buying cosmetic, dress, decorating items, etc. Nothing to save for future. And the main question is she will always consider that her earning amount bigger then me. Thus not enough helpful for my life.
