My husband makes so little money
He works a reg 9-5 type of job
But I know that men his age are making a lot more and it bothers me that he makes so little
I keep telling him to look for something else but he doesn’t really look for other opportunities. I end up feeling like the making money responsibility falls on me a lot as I try to work extra hours to make as much as I can..
my dream is to be a sahm but it doesn’t look like it’ll ever happen
How do women’s husbands make enough to support the family?

The simple answer is that the husbands have jobs that earn more money.
The other answer is that some people have made excellent investments and they are able to live off of the investments.

Nothing to do with age.it’s about mazel and hishtadlus (this means something else to different people, but can be college, working really hard and working your way up the ladder, and sometimes more job hunting)
I remember one of my team members who I managed openly told me that he should be making more money because he’s older and male. I was young and single but had way more experience.

Does he know about your SAHM dream, and is he supportive?

I’m not op but I feel the same.
My husband make 550$ a week.
I wish to be a sahm or at least to be able to work part time.
My husband could care less.
He takes no responsibility over the money.
He doesn’t even appreciate that I work hard and support the house.
We have a few children and refuses to look at the budget and how much a family of 6/7 needs…

I was there for close to a decade. He bh left his job after begging and pleading and went into a different field which will iyh have him earn nice money.
Someone once told me that comfortable shoes are very hard to get rid of. That's exactly what my husnands job was to him. He was simply afraid to leave his comfort zone.
I don't have any advice, but I do hope things change for you and him, and that he finds something that pays way better.
