Reb Eliezer: That’s only the case if the wife explicitly said איני נזונת ואיני עושה. And then it applies from that time forward but not retroactively. But in any event she had to have made that explicit statement; by halachic default that is never effective or assumed regardless of her income status. And as a practical reality, very very few wives (even high earners) say איני נזונת ואיני עושה.
