Comments by "Tinerfeña" (@Islas_Canarias) on "The way it ALL ENDS: the five endgames that all women face" video.
I married down but allowed time to balance things out. When I met my husband I was earning twice as much as him and was the more educated. I chose to ignore all that as I am old fashioned. I married him, got pregnant and quit working outside the home. 18 years later my husband is earning three times what I was when we met and we live comfortably on one income while I stay home to homeschool. Life is great when you ignore feminism and live according to the old ways. Oh, and I don't own a designer handbag. I don't own designer anything. I don't even own a smart watch or a brand name mobile phone. I don't even have my own car or brand name clothes. I haven't even purchased any clothes for myself (besides under garments) for over five years now. All my other fit, are in my size, my colouring and body type why would I need to buy more?? Most of my clothes are from Aldi. I never was materialistic. We have no debts besides our mortgage which is almost payed off.

@icebough4191 You are free to think whatever you want. I have 3 university diplomas. My husband quit school age 16 and has been a labourer his entire adult life. He was a warehouse employee when I met him. I was an accountant running a company all on my own. Today he is a plant operator. He is only on wages but he makes money because he is a shift worker who works nights and weekends and does a lot of overtime. He was offered a promotion this year to manager and asked me my opinion. I let him know he would have more responsibility for the extra money and life wasn't worth the hassle. He listened to me.

@jameseverett9037 nope. Wrong. I had almost half a million dollars when I met him. I bought our house. I didn't need, want or expect him to increase his income. I married him for who he was not his earning capacity. He earns as much as he does because he chooses to work extra hours. I never asked him to do that. He was offered a promotion this year for a huge increase in his pay. He asked me what he should do. I told him he was 53 and needed to slow down. That he would have more responsibility for that extra money and that life wasn't worth it. I wanted him to be home more with me and our children. Not selling his soul to the money demon. When he met me I told him I would buy our house so he wouldn't have to spend his life working to pay off a huge mortgage. He appreciated that. He has ADHD and can't stay still for long so he has chosen to work overtime to burn that extra energy off. I never ask him for money. He pays me a small stipend every month to cover groceries and medical costs. The rest he has saved for our retirement. I married him because he was a good person who shared the same values as me.

@xenadonau8356 Lol. We bought the house with my money. It's now worth $2 million dollars. I make my money through real estate. I own 3 other properties. All purchases thanks to the house we bought with my money. I make plenty of money of my own.
