I love my mom, but she isn't smart like my dad. We've always known the one who got my dad's brains was my sister. My dad made a lot of money before retiring because he kept getting promotion after promotion. My sister is just the same; she got out of college and kept getting promoted. Right now she makes 5 times more than me.
Should I feel bad I just can't compete?
and should her fiance feel bad 'coz he doesn't make as much either?

I don't think nobody should feel bad, it all depends on the jobs, the education, (college is a big think, it always has) and experience. For example, I make okay money, more than I would have ever done, should have I stayed at my previous job, which was a small company, like the one I'm with, but at the other company, there was no room for expansion, nor promotion, here there isn't either, not for promotion, but to learn more, there is, and in most jobs the more you learn, the more you CAN get paid. So don't feel bad, I bet you guys don't work at the same place, so you can't compare, right, the environment is probably different, and so are co-workers, jealousy, and other components. Start feeling bad when you know you've worked so hard and your boss doesn't see it, nor rewards you for it, don't worry about other people. Be happy for your sister and keep trying you hardest, one day it'll pay off, as I bet it has for her, cause I'm sure she's not lazy, and didn't get where she's at because of her looks, or I could be wrong =] Good luck and always show pride in what you do!

Just be happy for her and keep trying your personal best. It is not a competion to see who can make the most money. Find a career that you love and have fun.
Good luck!

nah don't feel bad. its only money.. and hey.. if your ever in a financial bind I'm pretty sure that she'll help you out. These day in ages women are making more money than alot of people. eventually she'll find her place in the buisness and will make a steady income.. your time will come.. be patient and keep working towards your number one goal.

Why should either of you be embarassed? It's not a contest, is it? Just be happy for her that she is successful.

why should you feel bad for her success, is she rubbing it in, and if not, then why bother, she is your sister, and if her fiance is ok with it, then more power to him
