Hi Fishes,
Many peoples saying product based company will pay more than service based company.
But I think nowadays service based companies are paying more than services based.
Actually Tiaa global business services is product based company but not even ready to match the offer. Before interview they are ready to give package but once interview get cleared they will not ready to pay package based on your expectation.

Sounds like a conversation you should have with him, not a bunch of nerds online.
For what it’s worth, when I (~180k year)was working 70-80 hours, my wife (100k/year) did more of the housework, when she’s works 60+ hours and is very busy, I do it. If we both are working that, we agree to pay for a cleaner for a week or two.
Incomes dont realllllyyy come into it for us. We treat our incomes as a bucket and we treat our responsibilities as a bucket, and we just get through them together.
This is the way.
Marriages are challenging enough when two people are involved. Inviting a bunch of internet randos into you financial discussions is a suboptimal move.
Lmao a lot of responses from women are like these when it shows women in not a great light.

The only real legitimate option is divorce. I see no alternative.

If you’re married, it’s your money too so no
I think couples are entitled to manage their time and money in a way that works best for them. One benefit of separate money is that each person feels free to spend their money as they want.
If you have combined money you likely need to set some limit of what is purely personal discretion and what is a joint decision. (I spend 200 on a pair of shoes without discussion but we need to discuss before you buy a new car). With separate pools of money you manage through that issue.
In this case it seems that you are contributing your “free” time to a joint responsibility. While he is spending his “free” time on something that benefits him solely based on the rules you have set up. That does not sound fair.
I would say your options:
- divide up the housework 50-50. He does not get a pass because he is working more.
- He uses a portion of his extra comp to pay for outside help. (His 50% share)
- the portion of his overtime that equates to your housework goes into the shared pool.
You’re married. Assuming no complicating factors that require some degree of financial separation (e.g., one of you has kids from a prior relationship, or owns a share in a family business/real estate), you cover expenses jointly and each person gets an equal amount of “fun” money to spend on whatever you want, no questions asked. If you do what you’re suggesting — he pays more of the household expenses because you do more of the housework — what are you doing with “your” extra money, anyway?
I make almost 3x what my partner does, and he does more of the housework than I do — but that’s not because of the difference in our salaries, at least not directly. It’s because he works 40-45 hours a week, and I work 55-60, and we’re trying to maximize the time we can spend having fun together once we’re both done with work.

This attitude is a slippery slope into a lot of resentment. Our Financial Adviser sets an annual savings goal for us and we work together to achieve that goal. We’re a team and neither of us micromanage the other’s spending / savings.
Penny pinching with your husband and asking random people how to handle your personal life are bad for a marriage.
I am divorced and would never combine incomes again. Perhaps do a % to total split.
Absolutely he should be paying more especially since you do more housework. That is unpaid labor that he is mooching off of.
Technically yes.
Apply your consulting skills. It should really be about defining a common goal and then working towards it together with the greatest efficiency, sustainably.
Ex:
If you need a combined household income of say, $1m for your family, is it more likely that both of you achieve $500k each, or one of you achieve $750k and the other person $250k? What is the shortest and most efficient way? Who is better/ progressing faster? Can you sub the housework out to someone else I.e. a helper? And remember it has to be sustainable (no one person will burn out/feel it is unfair).
Rising Star
The first question I would ask you is why aren’t you comfortable initially brainstorming this idea with your husband?
Rising Star
Do you all not share money?
Hire a biweekly cleaner. Well worth it, you both enjoy the weekend and don't miss $150
The additional amount he makes from overtime isn’t significant enough to risk causing conflict, especially if you make the same base. If your salaries varied greatly (like 50k vs 150k) and you didn’t have combined finances it might be understandable, but this just isn’t worth it IMHO.
Pro
…AND if they aren’t married. For married people, it should be joint- this is a partnership and should be very different than bf/gf, where you would want to carefully portion out the percentages because your money is yours, separately.
Pro
What is up with this “married” and worried about who contributed what to a joint savings account. Isn’t it all the same money?
Chief
The way I would approach it (and it may be oversimplified) but continue splitting 50/50, and overtime money gets put in 2 buckets. First is fun money to go enjoy whatever with, and the second is savings.
Pro
You’re a team, a partnership. If your true issue is that you’re doing more housework and it’s causing resentment, ask your husband if you both can hire a professional cleaner / outsource laundry / outsource cooking, etc to lessen the load on you. How you worded this it almost seems like you want to be “paid” by your husband for the housework you do. That’s not how a team works, in a team people flex and contribute more in some places for the broader good of the team.
A relationship that is setup for a divorce is indeed going to ultimately end in a divorce. If he spends his free time (which in my opinion is worth 10x your payrate) working as long as he saves it and doesn’t spend it all, you should not care. I think this type of nickel and dining shows that you are not really in a relationship, your just waiting for an exit opportunity.
Chief
😂 I just can’t with this satire gold right here
If this is truly a genuine question and the logic that seems to be used behind question would warrant your husband to reduce his overtime and for you to increase yours and then have him help you out more with chores so basically do a mutual reallocation of hours.
