I was the main breadwinner through the majority of the last 20 years. It was quite stressful when my late husband retired in 2010, but I was OK with it because he'd cleaned more toilets than he should ever have had to and I wanted him to relax. Unfortunately, my illness eventually made it impossible for me to work at all, and we wound up losing almost everything. Except each other.
