I used to be a banker for 15 years but shifted careers to marketing and sales . My wife is pissed what to do?

sod your wife she's not living your life its your choice

get a new wife perhaps

Tell her that either she needs to understand that it was YOUR choice to make you happier. she did not deal with the everyday pressures that was making you unhappy.

Well as long as you can afford to pay for your house, cars, kids and other expenses its ok, otherwise you're screwed.

Don't worry about her. Wherever your heart is, that's where your treasure is.

As a woman who has been married for a long time, I'd say talk to her and try to get to the bottom of why she feels like she does. Is it just the money? Or is she scared? Or maybe she just bought something REALLY expensive and knows you can't afford it on 50% less money? :) The key is to share your happiness. What can you do so it's to her advantage to have you be happy? Does this mean you have time to take her out dancing? Find something that would make HER happy, too. Counseling would help, I'm sure. They just help people communicate fairly. Sometimes it's just the change that frightens people. Maybe she's upset that you made the decision without talking to her first (did you?). Unless she's really a shallow gold-digging kind of woman, she should appreciate having you in a better mood, having you around more, and getting more attention. Give her some time to adjust and see if you can make it into something good for her, too.

Explain what you have said in the detail section to your wife. Gently remind her that working in a job that keeps you in misery is no way to live your life. Money isn't everything. If you can get by comfortably with half of what you use to make, then she shouldn't complain. What if the shoe were on the other foot, and you wanted her to stay in a job she considers miserable? Talk to her diplomatically, and I think that she will understand.

Sounds like your wife really doesn't give a hoot about your family life. Its all about HER and her glamorous care free lifestyle......Been there, done that. Now I have a new job a new wife and life has never been better. There is your answer.

tell her your plan is to eventually run your own landscaoing co.-nice $ in that- also, she needs to realize that she won't be happy if you are miserable (unless she only cares about the cash)- I went through the same thing, luckily my wife is very supportive- you're 'tween a rock and a hard place
