    "less successful" and "dumb" are not the same thing

    My husband of 8 years is less financially successful than me (he makes less than half my salary), but he's brilliant and funny, and I completely enjoy his company. No complaints here. There are more important things in the world than money (especially for "high-powered" women who presumably don't require a spouse to support them).
