[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a dad and have a group of dad friends like me who are professionals but make around $125 - $175K - so government, in-house attorneys for small business, manager, consultant, medical sales, etc..  We have wives who make more than we do (doctors and lawyers) and are generally attractive - but I wouldn't say smoking, since we are all in our 50s.  We like to consider ourselves trophy husbands (despite our dad bods).

I knew my profession would not make me a fortune, so I was looking for a professional who could make what I make.  Just a bonus that she was attractive and makes 3X what I make.  I do the heavy lifting at the house with the kids and their activities and I could work from home when Covid hit and we had all the kids at home doing virtual school.[/quote]
This is not the norm, though.  In most couples, men still make more than the women. And men don't like it.
