        <description><![CDATA[My wife and I have gone through phases where each of us at one time or another has earned much more than the other.  Not all that much changes, since our relationship isn't dominated by that.  Who's earning more isn't a power trip over one or another, like Iv'e seen with other couples.  We adapt to the situation as it presents because we are a team in life.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[My sister earns millions.  Her husband writes blogs, watches ESPN, and whatever.My wife earns slightly less than half of what I do.  Her salary pays for kids college, and extras.If my wife earned more, then I could semi-retire and build more guitar amps and effects pedals.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I think you've hit the nail on the head. Equality doesn't have to (and probably shouldn't) be measured solely in financial terms. My last relationship had me earning probably 90% of the household income but also contributing 40%-70% of the household duties on any given day. I never once begrudged the financial inequality so much as I did the general inequality of total net input to household in terms of contribution of time and effort.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I earn much more than my wife but we share the housework 50/50. Why? Because she works equally long hours and is just as tired at the end of the day than I am. I make the house dirty (arguably more than she does as I work from home more often), wear clothes and eat - so why shouldn't I do my fair share of the work?To me the argument that one of you earns more and therefore deserves to do less of the homework is flawed (but is probably sustained by the men who are earning more for the same job than the woman in their life - still a regrettably common situation).]]></description>
