I'm aware that there is a duty to 'make reasonable steps to maximise your earning potential'

so while making a financial agreement where there is a big disparity of income due to one party 'not wanting to' work in a field where they have proved they can match the salary of the other person, would this be considered as equal and the discussion is over?

I feel a lot of the laws around divorce are heavily tilted to favourt the lazy/spender in the relationship.
