I'll say this to sum it up...in 80% of America between the coasts, a woman's career/earnings doesn't matter much.  In HCOL cities, like DC, it matters a lot.[/quote]

Funny, no other dad in my neighborhood in NoVA, nor any of my friends, married our wives based on her income. I didn't either. It was looks, personality, stuff like that. After you've bought a house, then you start making assumptions about her paycheck being there, and yours.

But if you had the choice of looks, personality, AND a good paycheck, that trifecta would of course be the better option, wouldn't it?  After all, marriage at its roots, and especially nowadays, is just a financial partnership.  As far as buying a house, we have a mortgage at 3x of one of our salaries...not BOTH.  Like I said, life is easier if you plan for it to be that way.[/quote]

I don't have my choice of looks, personality, and paycheck. Many or most people don't .
No, marriage is not primarily a financial partnership. (Been married.)
No, life is not going according to plan. I'm on plan C or maybe D overall .
