[quote=Anonymous]Not wealth by a wealthy person's standards, but I had substantial personal and retirement savings from working 6 or so years at a law firm before we married. I was able to pay off my own student loans and my husband's (his were not large) and put $100K down on our house, and still have a healthy emergency account and partial payment for our wedding. Around that time I took a pay cut for a job with a pension, which will (if I stay until retirement) support both of us in our old age. Married 8 years and he only recently started earning as much as I do at my less lucrative second career. I manage our money.[/quote]
