Why pay at all just stay at homeI believe a wife should earn less than her husband. That way he stays the man of the house while you work for your own money on the side. For example if you make 5k a month the husband should make 9k, he should pay for the mortgage, car insurance, and other necessities. You can do the grocery shopping and save the rest.
Or you can marry a filthy rich man and not work a day in your life.
