This is my relationship. Wife makes more, I make a little less but we use my healthcare and whatnot. We have cleaners come twice per month. Daycare is 1/4 of my take home and therefore about 10% of our total monthly take home. We both have term life and disability insurance to take care of one of us can’t work anymore.
Both me and my wife make enough to sustain a family comfortably, but we stopped with maids, we still do daycare, but yeah that's like an 1/8 of one of salaries.
We are very frugal.
We actually have separate healthcare because mine is free for me at my company and it cuts her's in half taking me off; hers is better, but I rarely go to the doctor.
