Three years ago I left my job to join my wife's successful financial advisory firm. We discussed how it would work in advance, but the reality has been very different. One reason for her success is a relentless passion to do things her way, which makes me just another employee. Our home life has also changed - all decisions need to go her way or there is hell to pay. If I stay, our marriage may not last. If I leave, I'm unlikely to find a good job, which will compound our income disparity.
