Clare Barnes Suedia Local time: 04:42 din suedeză în engleză + ... Main breadwinner | Mar 26, 2010 |
I earn almost twice as much as my partner (firemen are never going to be high earners, however necessary they are to society) and we contribute to the household budget accordingly... plus he's not the father of my son, so I don't expect him to provide that type of support - he does that in other ways than financially. | |

Laura Gentili Italia Local time: 04:42 Membru (2003) din engleză în italiană + ... Main breadwinner | Mar 26, 2010 |
I support myself and my 11 year old triplets. I am separated from their father and he doesn't give us any money. Laura | | |
Nikki Graham Regatul Unit Local time: 03:42 din spaniolă în engleză I voted 50/50 | Mar 26, 2010 |
although I actually earn considerably more than my husband now. However, we both have full-time jobs and contribute to running the house. He pays the mortgage and household bills, I pay for food, holidays, children's activities, etc. Like Clare, he is not my daughter's father, so I pay for everything she needs. | | |

comes from translations/ interpretation these days. For the past two years, I work for a hospital part-time (an administrative job), that definitely strengthens my translator skills in medical area:-) | | |
Zamira B. Regatul Unit Local time: 03:42 Membru (2006) din engleză în rusă + ... Used to be the breadwinner, contribute partially now. | Mar 26, 2010 |
As a single mother of one I used to be the only breadwinner for the two of us. I was in a full-time job until my daughter turned 3.5 years old. I had no longer a nanny by then, and working beyond 40 hours a week on a 40 hours pay became too much a strain. I went freelance and asked my daughter’s father to start paying maintenance. We now make equal or so contributions. | |

JaneTranslates Puerto Rico Local time: 22:42 din spaniolă în engleză + ... Major contribution, less than 50% | Mar 26, 2010 |
We "live on" my husband's earnings--groceries, mortgage, utilities, gasoline, etc. My earnings pay for my clothes, travel (to visit family), and a few extras. More important, my earnings are gradually getting us out of debt. | | |
Since my wife started working again a few years ago. I'd rather work part-time or not at all, actually, but customers won't let me. Philippe | | |
