Sounds like you'll have a financially successful marriage. Which isn't a bad thing if you can really achieve it.
We, for instance, decided not to have children until we could afford to live comfortably on one salary since Mrs. DeltAlum wanted to stay at home with the kids.
After seven years, it occurred to us that it might never happen, so we had our first which effectively halved our total income. It wasn't easy, but it worked out and we are happy, in retrospect, that the kids had mom around. (Please don't turn this into a debate on staying home vs. career, it is used here only as an example -- not a lifestyle suggestion)
Another way of saying what I've said in my past couple of posts is that marriage is not done in a clinical setting. Like in much of life and business, all of the things you learn and read about and take to heart go straight out the window in the light of day to day living.
Without the commitment to each other and the marriage, those can turn out to be really hollow sounding things a few years down the line.
