I was going to say something along the same lines before you wrote this but I had to go do stuff.

To be honest, I don’t think there is anything wrong with that. Times are changing in that we demand a lot more than our parents generation. We want new stuff, nice cars, to go out all the time, all this costs money. Even on a comfortable salary (such a Dr.) one salary is not enough if you want a nice house, nice car, designer clothes and a holiday every year AND to save for the future and kids. As long as the wife can stop working when she wants to i.e. when she has children if she wants to be a full time mum, I think it’s fair. Highly educated guys earning a lot of money? They aren’t that common.

So take another example, which is what actually came to my mind when Deeba posted. Let’s say there is a guy who seems decent enough, is educated but he is not earning a great deal, at least not at the moment. He can’t quite offer you the lifestyle you want but you are prepared to work at least for a few years so that you can accommodate that and afford the things you want. However, he doesn’t want you to work, period. Would you compromise?

I think what i find really hard is having choices taken away from me so no i wouldnt be happy about that. I wonder what others would think.
