[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if the wife can’t even earn 75k in her field.  After taxes that’s barely enough to pay the daycare around here. Let alone a full time nanny …..that was my case.(new poster ).  My time was better spent as the full time care giver. And yes I did contribute to the business and his success. I do everything at the house as well as some administrative work for him. If we divorce I think I’m entitled to half. And what about the kids. Wouldn’t it make sense for the kids to see both parents living comfortably and not a mother struggling to make ends meet while the father continues with his standard of living ? [/quote]

You.did.not.contribute.to.his.success.

You are a low earner, you get to live like a low earner. If you want to live better do better.

This. It’s fine your income and potential was low. Remarkably, men don’t find themselves in the same trap. They make career decisions that don’t seem to lead to this “it doesn’t even make sense for me to work because my income is so low” cycle. So, you didn’t focus on making a high income and it therefore made sense for you to not work. Fine. But this has nothing to do with your spouses earning potential. [/quote]
