[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH is a partner in a financial services firm. All of the partners and senior associates are married to someone with at least a bachelor's degree, and all of the partners and senior associates who are under 50 are married to someone with an advanced degree (doctor, lawyer, MBA, and nonprofit). Purely anecdotal, but that's our experience. I see a similar sampling among our friends, but admittedly most of my closest girlfriends are from school. [/quote] For the 100th time, please separate the degree from employment status. Are all partners and senior associates married to someone who work in those jobs? Remember, hbs alumna sahm more than ttt mba alumna. The op asked about employment status not educational level. Too many in this thread of mixing the two. [/quote] Same experience as pp but agree with the above point. Education and “pedigree”, for a lack of a better word, matter much more often than actual career. Everyone I know is married to someone with similar educational levels but I know many couples where DH is the breadwinner and wife is working part time/not at all/or in a low paying position. Their wives are well educated and work at nonprofits etc, not great looking women with HS degrees who work at target. [/quote]
