Anyone else's spouse make a crapload of money?

My wife is filing for bankruptcy (her ex-husband left her with a mountain of debt) and she manages a surgery center. What she saw previously flying out the door is now coming in as income (medium six figures).

I've always been "Mr. Broke-Ass" but I take care of myself and my mechanical habits. Now she's all "you can quit your ****ty job and concentrate on going to school now" and "now you can afford the parts you need for your race bike" etc.

I feel very very odd

Always saw myself as that guy who shows up at a AHRMA or WERA race with a beat-to-crap Norton on the back of a beat-to-crap truck that I sleep in for the duration of the trip. I like minimalist hiking trips. I don't like rich people food.

I've only been married for a year. I don't feel very comfortable. Should I get over it? Maybe I'll be one of those guys who squirrels away liquid cash for a rainy day.

Wondering if there's anyone here with a similar situation. I think the underlying issue is emasculation or something involving cigars, i duhno
