[quote=Anonymous]Yep. And having a number is smart, but it doesn’t have to be $250k or something that puts you in the UMC unless you are all about that.

I’m mixed AA and most of my AA and Latina friends outearn their DH. All of white female friends married to black or Latino men outearn their DH. Only when I get to African and Asian friends do I regularly see Hs earning considerably more and we are all women with advanced degrees who married men without criminal records. They just largely didn’t have the same educational opportunities and even if they have a degree, they just tend to get passed over in hiring and promoting.
I outearn Ed my first H who was white, but that’s another story and has to do with his personal difficulties with being spoiled and mentally ill. My DH (second marriage) is AA and outearns me and always has, but he’s in STEM. I have to say that I did not ever want to be married again to someone that I outearned because I think it can make a bad dynamic. I read that women who outearn their DH do more housework.

Yeah, I wanted the same income or higher in a second spouse.[/quote]
