My S.O. makes about double what I do.
But I get to pay the entire rent with what I make, while she pays for most other things. I suppose that's enough to satisfy any desires my lax ego may have.
I really should be making more money, but if she made 5 or 6 times what I did, I would imagine there would be less of an issue.
