    It's actually quite difficult. You should try it sometime. It's very rewarding.
    Does your work generate enough revenue to provide for two families instead of one?

    It doesn't need to because my wife and I generate enough revenue to take care of the only family that matters, which is the same as the income we make in FFXIV.

    I mean, I have full Harlequin (that I bought) and 10mil gil. She bought a Vintage Robe and only has 4mil gil. All she's getting is SP and trash to sell to NPCs. It's not like we're making a fortune and rolling around in our money bins. I play more. I have more resources. She plays enough and has enough to maintain her gear for the levels I get for her or with her - and what she can't afford I cover the difference, just like real life.

    It's a partnership. It's not a disadvantage to anyone else around us except people who don't have friends or wives. That's not a problem I can solve for anyone else. Find your own friends & wives.

    It's great that you provide for your family like I provide for mine but I'm pointing out a flaw in the systems of the game where it is balanced for a single player at a time which your methods of play bypass. The general argument of the people who do play like this is either why do you care? or SE is not discouraging it. If your wife didn't work for an example but your job suddenly paid double what it did now because your married, is that fair to the single guy who works with you doing the exact same thing. This is how the game is right now. You're saying I just need to buy a new high end computer, a new game and subscription to have what you have. Your words sound nice and simple but I don't find it convincing enough for me to do.

    When are you gonna realize it is a video game and not real life?

    Also failed arguement, competitive pay is fair.

    SE should make a policy about multiple account ownership. If it's you and your wife it doesn't involve you at all so it doesn't concern two actual people playing. My problem is with that lone guy who runs two accounts for the sole purpose of doubling the benefits to his single character or that RMT who sells capped rank accounts for $200 by ranking up eight accounts at a time for selling purposes which someday will happen if the game ever picks up. People need to remember its not just that good husband who plays like this it's a lot of other people do it just for the pure sake of extra benefits in doing so.
