We're both self employed.
I make more money than him.
Not much altogether !

DH is officially the breadwinner since he goes out to work every day. I joke with him that he's lucky he married me. I may be a SAHM but I brought yerusha and investments into the marriage that bring in a second income without having to pay for childcare or other expenses that add up when both spouses are working.

My husband is the main breadwinner, and I am unemployed because I’m still in school. However, I will likely make more than him when I graduate and start working.

We both work, I make more than him. But we need both our incomes. So who's the breadwinner?

If one or both of them has their own business, it can be much less straightforward and vary more year to year.

Similar, and I chose that I'm the breadwinner and he's employed. He works in multiple positions to bring in that extra that's the difference for us between make it or break it.

It’s hard to say.
Until recently my salary was always much more than his.
But he does investments, real estate, side work (with no income just earnings back into business) beside his salaried job. So it was hard to say even though it should be straight forward.
Like my salary and day to day earnings were more and what supported us for many years.
But his investments built us wealth and a nice passive income today.
Today his actual salary is just under mine.
