As a guy and a working adult, I will try 2 break of from da parents burden, as this hinders my future advancements like money for investments, money for starting a business or so. It may sound a bit bad, but wat i mean is dat I try 2 make sure I relocate a lump sum of money enough for my parents n save da rest.

As for da comparison part, I think if u compare too much, it gets u nowhere. I myself is considered a professional with a degree in Engineering. Even I am not confident dat I can give my other half da life she wants, like wat u say, quit their job after marriage n lace around. In order to achieve dat, how much does ur husband need 2 earn? I would be looking at more than 10k per month. Even with a professional degree, how many can do dat? If yes, at wat age? Definitely not at a young age. Many young gals forsee dat, dats y they tend to stick to guys with parents inheritance. But u noe wat, I take pride in earning my own money.
