How to motivate wife to chase more TC?

Wife keeps saying she is content in her current role but i know she has a lot of potential and can easily hit 250k. She is just taking it easy. I want to motivate her to try for more. I just moved to a new job so can't do anything for few months/1-2 years. Looking for some tips to avoid unnecessary arguments. My TC: 270k, Wife TC: 120k

It’s her own choice, stop thinking that you know better

Ps. If you love worrying about TC worry about your own

Lol love this second comment. I’m assuming you’ve got a pretty high tc, mind if I ask TC/YOE/location and assuming software ? What do you think is a reasonable TC for someone in software to get after 5 years if they are chasing TC?

I’m putting a 1 year over/under on divorce.

The environment and team is more important to some people.

Chasing TC doesn’t make you happy, I would know...

I mean yeah not by itself, but is it reasonable to say chasing TC doesn’t make you unhappy either?

@AT&T imagine you're an Indian engineer that just graduated making 3k USD and reading about american salaries

Well, you’re right about the arguments being unnecessary.

You have a prenup?

Man, not everyone is chasing TC. If she is happy in her job, let her be.

You can’t want things for people more than they want them for themselves. Odds are she is how she will be.

Exactly in the same boat. I try to show what is out there and that it might be better and more impactful work than what she is doing now ( with similar perks as her current job) .She has finally agreed on starting the prep work and I fully want to support her through the entire process ( I scout for interview questions, patterns, make notes for her to make her job hunt easier).
