JenJen – Of course, in utopia, the one with less money secretly wishes to be a bum.

If the man earns less than his woman, there are other abilities that he can put to use.

Still can comment or too late oredi?
What is the big deal if the wife/gf earn more than the guy? In today’s reality, this seems to be more and more likely oredi. But hor, I dont mind also if my hubby earn more than me! Then can quit my job n be fulltime housewife or work from home.. WAHAHAHAHAHA!

DC – Well, in theory yes, but in reality, it’s not as easy. I agree, men are very competitive – animal instinct of survival.

Nadia – Of course, but nature always triumph.

kkjm – It’s easier said than done my friend.

Capt Jack Pipit – That’s the thing – how sure when it comes to arguments, it would ALWAYS be fair?

Pinknpurplelizard – Agreed, but it’s not easy, for a men to suck it up. It’s the way of the world.

bosscat – OK, but I don’t see how that relates to this post.

TerraShield – Yeah, I’m not discounting the fact that it would fail all the time, I’m sure there’s the odd anomaly of 2%.

foongpc – Exactly, ego bashing tool. Your points are interesting, but it’s easier said than done my friend, unless you’re currently experiencing that from your relationship, that I shall not argue.

lvynana –

Lisalicious – Yes, and it’s not because of the women, but because of how society belittles them, other women would look down on that man as well.

massy – Errr…ok.

Nick Phillips – That’s the thing, with more money comes more control, subconsciously.

Vic – LOL! Let me know if it does, and I’ll mirror your route to success!

JL – With the aim to outdo the wife, breeds unhealthy competition that could impair the relationship, no?

cicak – Good on ya.

Well, I don’t think I would mind. Nothing’s gonna happen even if I do. There’s no use being bitter about it anyway, the least I can do is aim to outdo the wife!

I few years back, I agreed with my best friend that we would get some smart chics that would earn the money so that we could bring the kids together with a case of beer to the park and chill out. Did not work out yet, but working hard on it ;-p

I have no qualms about about my other half earning more than me as long as she’s willing to share it with me … LOL!

What’s wrong if your wife is earning more than you? Provided she does not mind and don’t use it as an ego bashing tool during a fight, and of course don’t mind sharing her money, there’s actually a lot of benefits derived from this.

First, she can spend her money without constantly asking money from you! No more worries and heart attacks when there are mega sales in town!

Second, if you enjoy playing the house husband role, this is like a marriage made in heaven for you! If you don’t, then too bad lah.

Third, you don’t have enough money to buy that latest gadget? Don’t use credit card, just ask from your wife lah! This is called smart money management!

Four, doesn’t it make a nice change when your wife pay for your dinner in a lavish restaurant? You deserve it!

Five, you can finally get to enjoy the life you’ve always wanted! Quit your job and let your wife do all the hard work of earning money! No more office politics. No more screaming from your boss. You can then just sit back, relax, blog all day, watch Astro, do some gardening. And if your wife is nice enough to employ a maid to do all the household chores, what else do you want to complain about? It’ll be bliss! : )

Of course, if you still feel uncomfortable having a wife who earns more than you, better not get married. Or just marry a man! Haha!

The guy who sits next to me at work is in that situation, because the wife works with an American company and we in an Asian company (I know this because he always loves to talk about his wife and kids) and he sounds totally cool about it, because the wife settles most of the bills!!

Guys should just suck it up if the gal earns more than you. There are also such things as house-husbands too. Raise the kids, housework, groceries, cook, wait for bread-earner wife to come home, etc… Hahahaha……!

I suppose I can live with it that my other half earns more. This cannot be avoided in this time and age. When it comes to disagreements, play fair lah…don’t go bashing the ego for the sake of winning. Both will end up as losers.
