That is because you are thinking about it from a man's perspective. You are only thinking about how it reflects on him. I would cringe if I had more money than my husband and he made a joke like that. Part of the joke is that he married her for her money. While a man might not mind if his wife teased about marrying him for his money (because men are unfortunately valued in this society by how much wealth they amass), a woman would mind if her husband teased about that.
etft -- t.s.
