Why would a man have problems with a woman making more? More money for toys that way.

Thing is, even ugly rich dudes can score a gold-digging model quite easily, so a HOT rich dude would be even more untouchable.

Until the 1950's, most women contributed to a household as much as a man did. Most people had extended families in the house, the single family home prior to this was only for the rich.

And there's your history lesson for today.

Personally I think it's more the intelligence and confidence that is usually a prerequisite to making bank that's intimidating. I have no issue with a girl with money but I'll admit to being a little intimidated at the thought of going out with an ivy league chick a few months ago.

I don't care who makes the most money, as long as our bills are paid, we still have fun together, I can buy what I want with the money I make, and we fuck often with great ingenuity and enthusiasm. Still waiting for about half of that.

I make more than my husband right now but won't forever. He doesn't mind at all but I wonder if it would be more of an issue if he wouldn't make more than me in a couple years???? I also made more than my late husband and it didn't seem to bug him any either.

There's no such thing as a working woman.

My bro married an older richer woman. He doesn't mind being a gold digger. I loved it when he would tell me and the other worker that the company wasn't making a ton of money and he wasn't spending it all on their new house being built. Haha. I know its your wives money silly willy. But its even better when he tells me what I need to spend my money on when he doesn't have to worry about money. Good times.

I'm glad to know that the 10 hours I spend away from the house is not considered work.

Thank you Ranger for pointing that out.

I'm sure all the single moms and dads are glad to know that they are needlessly paying for daycare because they really don't need to be gone every day.

WTF are you talking about that women don't work?
