[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The notion that waiting to marry and have children makes you more financial secure and leads to more promotions at work is pure fiction. Dual incomes allow you to buy a home, and more home at that, much sooner. A married 28 y/o couple over the last few years has watched their house explode in value. While unwed yuppies flush money down the drain on rent. Most young adults mature very quickly when the first kid arrives; waiting stunts that maturation. And most employers reward married with kids colleagues, as it signals you’re stable and trustworthy, and married with kids (and grandkids) elder bosses connect with you. The unmarried and childless just seem flighty, aimless and frankly weird.[/quote] There have been studies and you're basically guaranteed middle class status if you: graduate high school, wait until you're married to have kids. I absolutely would not have been able to afford a home if I had kids first. Daycare is 2k a month PER KID. [/quote] Yes, how exactly did granny afford to buy a home? pay for daycare? [/quote]
