2) They may or may not "substantially outearn" their wives. However, that's a huge assumption on your part. At least one of the wives in question has a career which probably means she substantially outearns the average sql server contractor.
3) The concept of a relationship is that each party contributes in the way that suits the relationship best. Saying that the money is mine and I'll spend it on whatever I want is a fairly sure fire way to ensure you lose half of it in the divorce courts...
