As a man(for transparency), some anecdotal observations;
I’ve seen many men who are hustlers, that don’t have a college education and are serial entrepreneurs or continually growing their businesses. Many of them far exceed average consulting salary, like big 4 SM salary at the least
I would say if you vibe and match in priorities and he is a hustler give it a a chance

True, a hustler and that has most definitely worked more than I have in my life
Money is not a problem, it’s when egos clash. Not all men that I have dated are comfortable with someone making seven figures.
Education is a problem though, and not per se in terms of degrees or qualification but rather are they exposed to much more of worldly view , are they open minded.
Why even reply to A1? He’s trolling. Better to ignore.
Agree with D1! As long as he’s driven he will be successful. I’ve seen many men with impressive degrees that don’t have the drive to utilize them to max potential. Which makes me believe they only wanted to achieve those degrees was for bragging rights and prestige reasons.
I’m a woman btw.
Guy here, so I will leave answers to your question to the women. But I did want to offer a follow up consideration: you may be comfortable making more than him, but is he comfortable with that?
My wife made more than me for most of our marriage until recently. It never bothered me, but I have friends whose wives make more and it bothers them on a daily basis.

I agree with your point. I’ve never had money at the forefront when searching for a partner as there as other things that are way more important I. E. His character and the way he treats people / you. As long as they are working and want to strive towards something and have the ability to work hard is what matters most.
In this day and age, it’s very common for Muslim women to make more than their counterparts as a lot of us had further education / better opportunities depending on our environment but a good woman wouldn’t use that against a man and a masculine man wouldn’t feel threatened. To be truly masculine also means knowing that you’re still a man and have to lead / provide the family regardless of the situation.
I also agree that circumstances and situations change - you could marry the most wealthiest man tomorrow but his health / provisions may be taken away from him. I guess it really is about knowing your responsibilities as a Muslim in a marriage as that’s the basis of the foundation and working and growing together through life.
I'd love to be a kept man. Single female Partners let yourself be known.
For me it wouldn't matter how much they made or their education because those things aren't really what I look for. So if the person had all of the other qualities that I am looking for in a partner then I would absolutely marry them because that would be exactly who I was looking for.

Agreed. Money doesn’t really interest me because it can be taken away in a second. I guess it’s the fact it helps since I don’t want to work in the future.
