My wife prefers a career working with autistic children, and earns much less than I do as a software developer because of that preference. She is amazing and I want to enable her to do whatever she is happiest doing using the money I am fortunate to be earning, as much as she is willing to let me help. You're looking at other human beings as merely economic objects and that's not going to net you happiness long-term. Consider each human you meet on the merits of their character, not their wallets...
This thread is ridiculous. Come back to earth, get out and meet real people.
- dominotw 8y ago> You're looking at other human beings as merely economic objects I don't mean to be offensive but don't you think she considered your earning potential while choosing you as her husband? There is nothing wrong with doing it, ppl have beeen doing it forever. Nothing immoral about it. It does go into the equation.
- heurist 8y agoMy wife cares very little about money. She developed her own methods for getting the most out of life without it, and is always suggesting that I spend less of it. I've been able to show her the benefits of having extra money and she's been able to show me how to live well frugally (not that I'm a big spender in the first place).
