Better yet, are we, as Christians, restricted to marrying within our own class? That's what some people seem to be suggesting.
I am not sure who would suggest either of these ideas. I would reiterate that it is a bad idea to get married, with the intention of your wife supporting you through seminary, or an extended amount of time. It might be acceptable in certain circumstances, but this was a particular case, where opinions were sought. Since you brought your personal situation into play, I would comment that it is a great deal different than the one being discussed. In your case (correct me if I am wrong), you are already well into law school, while the opening post refers to an individual who has yet to begin seminary, and is looking at three plus years of schooling, and then a search/wait for a call.
