[quote=Anonymous]OP - this was my situation several years ago. DH switched from a higher paying job that he hated to a seemingly lower stress job. I made double what he did even with his higher paying job. You know what didn't change? His contribution to the household tasks. His stress about our finances, which got worse (e.g., "I saw you bought a Starbucks today..."). His lack of ambition. You have to gauge whether this change would really make a difference as a net gain because you will be trading work stress for financial stress. Determine whether you can be supportive of this change and what the alternatives might be. The current situation is not sustainable for him clearly, but that is a massive pay cut at that income level. [/quote]
