Janice Min is the former US Weekly editor-in-chief who reportedly made $2M a year and at one point in time, her monthly paycheck was more than her husband’s annual salary.  Ka-ching!  In the New York Post this week, Janice Min who is Korean-American, shares her secrets to having a successful marriage while being the female breadwinner.  She notes that nearly a quarter of American wives serve as the family breadwinner but to her estimation, 60% of them are annoyed by that status.

To me, marriage wasn’t a goal, but something that happens to some and not others. I probably filled my mind with thoughts about being a journalist and working in media more than anything else.

Now I look back at that decision and realize what I was really resisting was the idea of turning over my independence — financial and otherwise — to someone else. It wasn’t my style. But it has never shaped my worldview. I dare you to find another editor in New York who has assigned more stories and photo shoots involving rings, wedding dresses and romance than I. I am a staunch believer in love, marriage and family, but not that a woman can’t out-earn a man or that a man shouldn’t change the diapers.
