[quote=Anonymous] You don't realize how expensive it is to raise children in a middle class lifestyle. Now if you're talking upper crust lifestyle (best private schools, international travel, best camps and extra-curriculars), your money will evaporate in the blink of an eye. And I'm not even talking about college. Talk to your peers who have kids. Assess with your wife about what you want in life. Accept the possibility that what you want might change over time. I understand you need at least a long vacation, and that you are burnt out - noone would talk about the rat race like this otherwise. Your occupation in life should be meaningful to you. Instead of forfeiting future earnings, you could consult a career psychologist, and see whether you could change careers. Definitely take a long vacation as well! Good luck. Don't make any rash decisions. [/quote]
