Nothing i guess, i earn more than my husband, i contribute more to the upkeep of the house, my hubby has not gone mad because i earn more than him, it's not a competition, owning to the nature of his job, i believe he will be one day be richer than me, even if that day doesn't come, no probs, i will keep on doing my best, if i don't use my money for the benefit of my nuclear family, what the hell will i do with it?

Most women today earn more than their husbands and the world has not come to an end.

Great post

but that bolded bit boggles mind to be honest. Girl parents ( in Nigeria/ our society ) have a lot of work to do about this brainwashing mentality that abound. Must he be richer than you?

What sort of destiny crashing prayer point is that? undecided

I don't think who earns more should be a matter for discussion cause in the final analysis it only implies more for the family.

God bless u jare. Dont see nothing wrong with it. So long as u guys both understand and respect each oda and as long as she doesnt turn him to an errand boy.

Naija ppl and our sick mentality sha. Does our constitution make it a crime for d lady to earn more? Why do Nigerians just think d lady must earn less? So Ngozi Okonjo Iweala's and Dezianni's husbands shd go and commit suicide ba? Na wa oh!

Some ppl dont even know d difference btwn a help-meet and a house-help. Dem think say na only to day cook, cleam and wash be help-meet.

Myopia indeed! :@

Nothing! Just be happy for her, celebrate her achievements and encourage her to do more after all if it's good for her, it's good for you too i.e you're both in it together. 1+1=1.
