[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Delay instant gratification. This includes kids. I really can't stress this enough. We didn't start having kids until our late 30s because we wanted to purchase a house, whittle away my students loans (still not paid off but the end is in sight), get our retirement investments on the right track, and get a few big promotions. We are now in a great place to start a small family. The first child will be born this fall. We'll take 6-12 months with the first kid and re-assess. Again, delay that instant gratification. This economy is unforgiving if you don't have a tech job with crazy salary+benefits or family money. [/quote] This is very bad advice and could lead to a lot of heartache. Yes, some people find themselves easily able to get pregnant in their late 30's, but this is NOT true for many people. Do not delay having children if you would like to have children.[/quote]
