[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband works extremely hard. He is a law partner and has put in extremely long hours every year and is usually compensated well for his work. He also does a lot of special things for his firm. Last year was a bad year for the firm because the corporate side (he isn’t a corporate lawyer) over-hired in 2020
& 2021) and overall profits were down 20%. Dh billed in the top 10% of partners in his practice area and top 2% of all partners and yet he just learned that his bonus and overall comp are going down 25% and he’s being moved down a level of partnership. He is really upset, questioning all his choices, etc. 
I have no one I can talk to about this irl. I’m sad for him, worried about our expenses, and I know he is worried about his job security. 
And yes, I do have my own job but fortunately I have a lot of job security. Unfortunately I also make a lot less than he does. [/quote]

Have you consider changing fields? Perhaps you could bring in more money to the household, too, instead of depending on your husband.[/quote]
