So, fellas: would you leave your girl if she suddenly made more than you?

When my wife and I were younger she made more than I did for awhile because she picked one line of work (nursing) and stuck with it while I changed paths several times. Didn't care. Later on I made more than she did. Still didn't care. Now she's sick and can't work at all and can't do a ton around the house either, I care that she's sick but still don't care about the money side of it.
I know some men who care as well as some women who care. I also know a few dudes who marvel I stay with my "useless" (not my word) wife when I could divorce her, dump the "deadweight" and shack up with some healthy woman a decade younger. I don't understand them at all, and they don't seem to understand why their suggestion makes me angry.
Think we're a little off topic for degrees and student debt. The wife and I managed to both stay out of student debt. That was part of the reason she took off faster than I did out the gate--never wanted to go deeply into debt so I took longer getting going, especially after hamgstringing myself by changing fields a couple times.
