[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well for us the reason is money and we make a pretty good living comparatively (HHI ~ 600k). We have three kids and we feel pretty confident that we can give them a nice life including all the extras like travel, private lessons, and sleep away camp. And college savings. That's the kicker. Our FA has us saving 1250 per month PER KID.

I guess people who have 4-6 kids and live like the OP make in the seven figures.[/quote]

So the only rationale for having more kids is that you can afford them?  There has to be a more compelling reason.  Poor families pop out multiple kids and can't afford them and they end up welfare....what's their rationale?  [/quote]

[quote]In August, Science published a landmark study concluding that poverty, itself, hurts our ability to make decisions about school, finances, and life, imposing a mental burden similar to losing 13 IQ points. [/quote][/quote]
