[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having kids in late 30s, I never expected how hard it would be around 60 and how it impacts retirement plans. [/quote] Can you elaborate? If you had your first kid at 38 and second at 42, they would be 27 and 23 when you’re 65. What’s hard about that? I’m not being sarcastic. [/quote] +1, curious about how this plays out exactly. I had my one and only at 37 and even though it was later than I wanted/expected, we talked about how she would be out of college before I turned 60, which feels feasible. I knew lots of parents who were in their 50s when I was in high school. It doesn't seem that bad? Maybe I'm being unrealistic. I fantasize about getting to travel with my DD when she's an adult some, maybe DH and I moving abroad. This doesn't seem out of reach?[/quote]
