[quote=Anonymous]My job may be offering an option of taking more vacation days/for less pay. I would go from 4 weeks of vacation to 10 weeks of vacation. I would lose 4 weeks of salary and they would put in a lower amount towards my retirement, based on my lower salary. My salary would go from about $100,000 to $91,000. I am married with 2 young children. My husband makes $100,000. We have no debt. As I'm writing this, it seems like such an easy choice.......money isn't everything.......I'd be saving on childcare costs and spending more quality time with my kids. Admittedly my inner turmoil comes from that I grew up very poor and have money issues.......so willingly giving up salary/later retirement benefits is hard for me. And I will get flamed for this.....I love my children but they exhaust me.......so going to work is actually more of a vacation than staying home with them for extended periods. [/quote]
