I saw a ‘study’
about how 20-something aged women
are worried about
out-earning their male partners.
That’s a bullsh*t fear.
I’ve been in that position
plenty of times.
Many of my female friends
have been there too.
The only time out-earning
creates problems
is when there are
already other, more significant problems
in the relationship.
And the out-earning situation
is usually temporary.
It is 2018.
Jobs and opportunities come and go,
incomes along with them.
You will out-earn him for a bit
while he’s looking
for a new job
or building a business.
He will out-earn you for a bit
while you’re looking
for a new job
or building a business.
Having two possible income earners
will give you a bit more stability.
That is a GOOD thing.
No one worthy
is going to complain
if you earn more money
than they do
(unless you’re a complete a$$hat
about it).
Ask for that raise.
Secure those new customers.
