[quote=Anonymous]OP, I've only read a few pages of this, but I think the backlash against your post all comes down to the title.

First, there's the fact that a wife is talking about her husband's earnings.

Second, and I think this is the big one, the use of "kill it."  Yeah, did anyone else's husband f'ing nail it and bring home a killing?  Yeah baby.  It's very cheerleader-ish.

Finally, there's the reference to biglaw and the combined effect of all of this is, a wife shamelessly flaunting how outrageously successful her husband is.  It's kind of gross.

In subsequent posts it's clear that you're just a nice lady whose husband isn't around much and you want to know if everyone else is raking in the money.  Ok.  But you could have used a little more diplomacy or humility in your entire post, starting with the title.  The fact that you didn't shows that, probably, underneath it all, you did want to flaunt, and lord it over people, even on an anonymous forum.  People do that all over DCUM, you have plenty of friends here, people anonymously bragging, so their egos will hear  the reflection and bask in it.  [/quote]
