Does your wife earn more than she spends?

She earns way more than she spends. Very conservative with cash... until we travel to see her sister and her kids, then it doesn't matter how much it cost's to get there, she's going to see her family. We do this every 3-6yrs depending on where they are stationed at the moment. The only place we've turned down so far is South Korea.

Oh yea, mine cash flows. She earns nearly what I do and carries ALL of our benefits. Her vises don't cost us any more than my deer habits do either.

Mine has good Bennie's at work. Fairly conservative till it comes to makeup. UPS or FedEx 2-3 times a week. But she returns damn near as much as she buys if she doesn't like it. I shit you not we weren't even to the car one time and she said this is got to go back.

I nearly spit my beer out when I read this topic.
Short answer. Hell no.
But I have a very inconsistent work schedule that requires travel overnights about once a month. She spent 12 years staying home with the kids and running them everywhere. She is a super mom and so far the kids are great. She just started working the the school system last year but she probably doesn’t cash flow. She is thrifty. She learned that during the Great Recession.
The way I see it, she is an indispensable half of our team. We cash flow as a team. It wouldn’t work if you pulled either of us out of the equation.

Were retired, so neither one of us cash flows anymore.....but our savings and investments do. . At one time my wife pulled down a pretty damn good salary as an RN and later as a Director of the Clinic/Hospital where she worked. She has pulled her load.....and then some. What a gurl! .

I should delete my first two sentences and then show her my post.
That could lead to a reward if you know what I mean.

My situation is very convoluted......remember you said this was a topic that involved a woman!
My wife HAD money.....is about all I can say. We now have a house and a farm, that we both agreed on, so I am OK with that.....but, as far as her going to an actual job? No.....hahahaha...fuck no!

I had to see if the title meant what it said. It Did! Lol!
The Cuda held this family together when she had every right to leave with the kids. With me being gone all the time, She did as much of the farming she could while raising our kids and working out as a Para at School or the old folks home. I was never home, never seen any of my kids born, denied her a wedding as we got married at the court house in a 10 min ceremony, (and she wasn't knocked up). Had no time other than for myself and work. But when ever I is was in the mood, after all I put her through, she was all woman! She earned every penny we have. I am a lucky man.
So yes, earned way more than she spends!

This thread then another about women hunting.
One thing that is absolutely certain, it’s cheaper to keep her.

I am lucky my wife keeps me around. She makes 3x what I make and is on the short list for another huge promotion. I hide what I spend on apple trees and thank the fed ex man everyday when he drops her packages off.

I just noticed this thread was posted in "Large Equipment." I just spit all my coffee over the top of my cat!
Cat is unharmed. +
