If Your Wife Is Richer Than You, Would You Be Jealous? by basadenet: 1:58pm On Nov 09, 2011
Women in most homes today are bread winner viz a vis the Nigerian harsh economy climate which had made many wives to be richer or financially comfortable than their husbands. in view of this anomaly or you found yourself in this precarious situation, would you be jealous of your wife?

No.

Cos her money is my money.

. .and her wealth is the result of my investment and hers . .

May God continue to increase her wealth.

Amen.

@OP, Hope you are not a male chauvinist? because to me, i believe is not an abnormally for a wife to be richer than her husband. There is no law whatsoever
that says a woman should not be rich.i for one will not feel jealous if my potential
wife is richer than me.

I am working tirelessly, day and night to see my wife excel and possibly earn better than myself. I think it's a good thing if she's "richer" than me cos . . . I go chop her dollar. Na me get am! cheesy

2good bobo dont be so sure about that
Re: If Your Wife Is Richer Than You, Would You Be Jealous? by Sheyun(m): 7:28pm On Nov 15, 2011
It's easier said than done or being in the situation. You know your wife is richer but you're suffering and she doesn't care ,or she can't possibly give you a figure of her statement of account,what then. I won't be jealous but it. Can be unbearable when she isn't opening up about it.

Who told you that lie in bolded? Sure, if you are good with her she may not think much of spending for/on you but for you to think her money is your money ain't quite right.
Re: If Your Wife Is Richer Than You, Would You Be Jealous? by Nobody: 12:22am On Nov 18, 2011
I care less for her money as long as I can perform my duties as the husband well. Her money is just a plus for the children!
Re: If Your Wife Is Richer Than You, Would You Be Jealous? by ssjalo(m): 12:51pm On Nov 19, 2011
I WILL CONTINUE LOVING HER PROVIDED THAT SHE CARE FOR ME, AND I TOO I WILL GIVE HER A COMPLETE LOVE AND CARE.

MAY GOD BLESS HER WITH MORE WEALTH AND I BELIEVE MY TIME WILL SURELY COME.

This post is interesting, most of the guys here claim they wont be jealous if their wives becomes more richer. Well, i say from personal experience that past suitors asking for my hand in marraige wants me to close my fashion line buisness and become a full housewife, which i firmly say inreturn, no way. Sorry, i cant. Even my last relationship, i sat with my ex bf and told him excitedly how some banks are willing to give out loans to fashion designers to either start their own buisness or expand. But guess what he bluntly said? Why do i need to expand? the one , i have is it not enough for me? shocked, that i should relax and concentrate on just one buisness that am managing, Can you beat that? I was short of words. I simply knew in my heart, if i marry this guy, who will simply kill my buisness without thinking twice.
He no longer comes to my office or home anymore, giving one excuses or the other. I , then called him on phone last Sunday and asked what the problem is? And he said, he needs a break like 4yrs to make more money, before we can resume dating, I was like? are u ok? He said his mind is madeup that he wants to own his buisness ,like i own mine, And this is a working class guy that drives a nice car while me, i still climb okada and bus just because i know if i buy a car and drive, no guy will toast me again. So, i take it upon myself to be very simple and humble. Upon all that he still feels intimidated. There was a time, he positioned both of us in the mirror and said , oh gosh am more fresh than him, i looked at him and said, are u a woman, u r goodlooking whats yur problem?
My dear nairalanders, if i continue , u will just shake yur head in disgust, Anyway, av given him the break he needs to make his millions.
As for me, only very few guys can accept a successful woman as their partner or wives.shikena.

you are right, i don't want my wife to be richer than i am, or let me just say i cant marry a lady that is richer, but sure i can date but not the other way, women with much money are very difficult to control. And i like to have power over women
