What would you be most proud of?

Would you be more proud of your wife if she were an actuary bringing in 拢100,000 a yr or if she were a nurse or midwife bringing in 拢20,000 a yr? I am just curious. Does you wifes (or even your husbands) profession have an influence on how proud you are of them or not? I dont want to dissapoint him so what would you say to do. He says he doesnt care what I do but for some reason I dont believe him.

STUCK IN SCRUBS - you're so right, they are really underpaid!

My husband teaches NC history to 8th graders. Anyone can tell you that you won't get rich teaching. What makes me the proudest is standing outside his door when he doesn't know I'm there and listening to him lecture. 90% of the kids in his class are actually listening, because he has a gift of being able to engage those kids. I don't care where we go, someone will always yell out "Hey Mr Fender!" It's nice. So many boys don't have positive role models, but I have heard more than one boy tell him they hated social studies and history until they took his class.

I am way proud of him....

BTW - nurses and midwives are way underpaid in the UK.

The question should be what would make you happy and proud of yourself.
That's more important.

I honestly do not care what my husband does or how much he makes as long as he is happy

Money has nothing to do with being proud of a spouse. I will say this for the betterment of life why not make as much as you can? Good Luck

I'm proud of how smart my husband is, but I will be even more proud when he makes enough money to send kids through college and retire comfortably. I'm proud of him being a genius, but I'm also proud of him as a provider, if that makes sense.

no im just proud of him in general he makes me happy and takes care of his family .

my husband is a dentist and makes about $250,000 a year, but what im most proud of is the fact that he is helping the community

I think it doesn't matter if you love someone..If your mate loves you more if you make more money, than maybe its not love at all

If he loves you he wont care what profession you choose. Just as long as you are happy and fulfilled with yourself. If you are hurting for money and your job of choice isn't paying the bills that's another thing. But being happy with your job is really important so if you love what you do I wouldn't worry about how much money your bringing to the table. Especially if your man says every things ok.

What my husband earns or what his profession is has no influence on how proud I am of him or how much I love him. I just always wanted him to be in the career that he wanted and we would live on whatever amount of money was coming in. Why don't you believe him?

Maybe he thinks this is a decision you have to make based on your own desires and talents. A man will be proud of his wife if she is a well-mannered, gentile person. It doesn't matter what kind of job you have as long as you do it well!

It is not the amount of money that a person makes that should make his or her mate proud of them but the fact of what they do with themselves and how they treat other people.Anyone can go out and earn a bunch of money but if they are the type to nag their mate that they are the bread winner in the household and therefore should make all the decisions about money. In my eyes that is so very wrong and should not be done. After all God made the man to be the head of household and the woman to compliment him. Good Luck, hope this helps you.

i dont no what your asking

I think it's pretty sad that someone is measured by the amount of money they can make, having said that wealth tends to bring material gain and status and who wouldn't want that?

People are judged by their professions and obviously a talented partner would be a thing to be proud of, but it's only about the money if your name is Miss Mills.

doesn't matter what you do as long as you have passion for it. You have to be truthful or what's the point!

I'd prefer someone who was caring and doing stuff to help people/animals rather than exploiting/hurting/taking money off people...
Morals is more important than money.

My husband and I seperated last year but are still friends. We were together for 15 years. During that time he earned a decent wage but we were pretty strapped most of the time. He worked very long hours in a very physical job and I was so proud of him for that, even though he wasnt earning mega bucks. He choose this career because he loved it. He went on to start his own business and now earns lots but it's still the hard work he puts in every day that makes me proud.
