A friend came by and I re-jetted his wifes quad and did some other performance tuning to it.
"Don't let hers be faster than [his] mine" he told me.
On the strength of that comment, my wife handed to and asked me to install an extra high performance rev box we had on hand,, to give his wifes quad even even more snot, and not tell him.
The friend can't handle his wife earns more money than him either. Hense stunts like this.
My wife earns twice what I do, and it doesn't bother me a bit.
Her quad is streets ahead of me too in performance.
Some guys can't handle it, they feel dickless.
What's your take? Any stories?:

As long as we live a comfortable life and have nice things I could care less who earns more $$.
I would be pissed if her bike/quad was faster;):D

i quit driving truck 3 years ago since the wife was making twice what i was and only works 2 miles from our house, i don't have a problem with it at all. :D
now i get to stay home, play with our 4 kids and run them around to their various activities. when the kids get a little older i will be able to go back to work so i have that to look forward to. :)

Here you have two equal people in the work force, a man and a woman, the woman has to make a living as well as the man, in todays world it just about takes two incomes to live, raise a family, etc etc.
My wife has made more money than me at one time but it didn't bother me one bit cause our monies were pooled together as one big check, and im ok with that cause at the end of the day it's about taking care of business (bills, chidren, etc)
Some men have a hang up about it and guess what ?.......usually compounds into an argument and the relationship won't last to long from there anyways !!
Some people have these hang ups about the man should make this amount or that amount, some people and family members even judge you by this bench mark............sad :confused:
I don't give a crap cause we are usually happier and much more content in life than they are, we just trying to get through it on a daily basis like anyboby else.........................Keep it simple people :) go out and make your $$$$ come home and enjoy what your life has given you, a home, friends, kids, animals, boats :D , cars................enjoy !!!!

I haven't made a penny since 2002. Since we have been starting up, Audrey has been keeping the rubber side down the whole time. We don't have a pile of money as a result, but we do know how to use all of it properly... ;)
She does quite well as a Real Estate developer, and I am the luckiest guy in the world to be able to pursue my dreams and not worry about the home front.
As my brother once said... "You guys are broke way better than most people are rich!" :D

Where did you find a wife that makes twice what you do? does she have a sister? I for one would not be bothered by that at all.
I would still work... just not the long hours, and I would also be more picky about the jobs I do.

I would not just like but I would love it if my wife made more money than me. As far as the faster 4 wheeler for wifey........hers can be twice as fast as mine and I will still outrun her. She is a big chicken!!!! Not to sure I could handle being called the house biotch though. :devil: :devil: :devil:

my wife makes at least two and a half what i make a year.
she left a job she trully enjoyed LE to go to work for dupont. she has done well is now a preplanner for four low/high density polyethylene units.she has been asked to promote to supervisor,but says she is not ready !
her car (a dodge daytona charger r/t) goes faster than my truck. she does all her own maintance work and tuning of her vehicles. she also rides an 03 springer softail.
she drove our lib p/f,but won't try a flattie or a hydro.
kills and cleans her own game and fish !
this has allowed us to put two sons thru college and me to be able to keep a job i trully love. she is very generous and giving with her money !!
plus she's beautiful!

I don't think it really matters who makes more. Me and my wife have gone back and forworth since we started dating, she makes more then I make more then her then me then her. I don't care and niether does she, as long as we are happy and can own nice things that is all that matters to us.

The way I see it my fiance put her self through college finished up her phd by the age of 25 and has excelled in her chosen profession for the last five years. This has allowed me to take off the last 6 months and work on our house. I hope to be finished with our remodel by May when we get married. It has been so cool to have the time to do all the stuff on the house I have dreamed of for years. she is a team player and I am thrilled to add her to my roster. someday Ill go back to work but not today.
P.S. I paid for the boat:)

Tell your fiance congrats on the phd. My fiance will have her JD by the age of 25, and then our lives will truly begin. I look foward to her making more than me...that is until I finish my MBA at 26. Damnit.:jawdrop:

The wife's a teacher, and we're putting her through a Master's program as we speak. That'll make her salary close to mine. She covers us with health insurance, so if we add those together we're on equal footing. I'm moving from one organization to another beginning Monday, and I'll be taking a pay cut that'll put us even closer salary wise, in fact she mite even make more than I do to start... I'm proud of her for her accomplishments, and should she decide to take a job making more money than I do more power to her...

when we first got married and decided to have kids we both agreed that one of us would always be home with them. i know in todays world that isn't always possible with some but it has worked for us. we both have had our turn with the kids and taking care of the house over the past 18 years.

I have made more then my wife for most of our 10 years together until a year and a half ago. She has been a Sales Exec with a company that she loves for the last 20 months. She has done very well financially for her company and was just promoted this week to Senior Sales Exec/Business Developement Manager for the Western US. She will now be making 3 times what I make with incentives. I am going to take a few years off, finish my degree and stay home with the kids. This was her idea and I love her for it. I had just finished my Associates when we were married and we had a honeymoon baby. I adore my daughter, but I had to put college on hold and get a real job, something that paid in the upper 5 digits. My daugher will turn 7 in 2 weeks. This was/is the best gift my wife could ever give me.
