Yep and I have no problem with it. With her commissions she can make 4x what I make in salary if not more

No but I'm looking forward to the day she does when I retire in a year or two.

Some months. She’s a lawyer, I’m in sales. She should make more than me though because she works her arse off and has valuable skills whereas I just bullshite all day.

No but she did right after graduation.

I guess it depends on what she would be doing to out-earn me at this point. If she had to work more/harder I don’t think I’d be OK with it.

But if she’s boat racing me and has the throttle on idle? I’d be all about that life.

Married 5 years, both early 30’s. I had been out-earning her substantially during our relationship, but she moved into a new role last year. I still finished slightly ahead with my salary + bonus vs. her salary + commission. Although when you factor in her company-paid car, insurance, and gas card, she probably comes out ahead.

And it’s fricking awesome.

I heard that VA. You've got yourself a good one. Hope she got over me butchering her name. Thanks vodka.

I'm thinking about Monza this year. Temple of Speed! Interested?

She does try my patience at times but overall she's great. But don't tell here I told you that.

Yep, she makes way more than I do. No, it doesn't bother me at all. She has a much more advanced degree than I do, and has the income to show for it.

She did, not anymore though.

Made me feel like a baller because we had a lot of money.

She makes more per hour, but I make more during the year due to a bonus and overtime
