re: The true cause of all marital conflict is how little you make

Rich people get divorced because the bitch makes a financial calculation her head... "if I leave, will I be able to afford to live like I am used to?" If that answer is yes, watch your arse. If the answer is NO, then she'll probably stay. Guaranteed this is how it works.
Every time you have a fight...she's making this calculation.
This is why movie stars never stay married. They're both rich and can do what they want.

Really don't want to derail a thread here, but "trying hard" doesn't really apply, there's not much effort that goes into typing a harmless joke onto a message board.
Not sure why it bothered you though. It was at nobody's expense and didn't try to prove anything to anyone, just a dumb nothing joke.
If you didn't like it, I understand, it wasn't great. But why be a dick about it?
It's times like this when you realize that words can hurt.

I think we all should be sometimes, maybe there is something we can all learn from this thread which is based on a ridiculously stupid premise. Thanks pecker

It's not about how much you make, it's about how much you spend. I took a job making considerably less than I used to but I am much happier, have time to enjoy life, and I have been able to build up a decent investment account in the meantime.

This is really stupid.
It’s true that money can cause friction in a marriage, but I don’t think that if my spouse were to have sex with a prostitute, that my primary issue would be how much or how little money he makes.

Yeah, that's for real life. This is a fricking message board.

I get your point, and money definitely makes things easier. However, there are so many more factors that cause marital conflicts, divorce, etc. Its cliché but Money cannot buy happiness. It can hide some shite but that's it.

Rich people divorce a lot because they can do so with very little negative impact on their individual lives. Poor people do it because they were already poor to begin with. No change either.
Middle class people probably have the most incentive to stay married, looking at it from a purely financial perspective.

The OP is a pretty obvious troll, but there is some truth to this.
The vast majority of marriages ultimately break up because of infidelity or money issues.
I'm not saying that those are the only reasons or that other reasons don't predominate for strife during the actual marriage, particularly that simmering, missile crisis kind of "always there" tension, but those are the big 2 when it comes to the marriage ending.
Obviously, the more you make, all other things being equal, the fewer fights you have to have over money. Plus, if there is an asymmetrical earning relationship, the downside of that one is more likely to put up with more shite from the other and for a longer period of time, than if they're both broke arse *ahem* individuals.

Wrong. I quit my job 4 years ago to stay home with the kids. Wife is the breadwinner. Our relationship is incredible.
