[quote=Anonymous]This is doing it all for me - I worked for 11 years until my second child was born. During that time, I climbed the ladder and was very successful - never intended to "retire" at 32, but that's what I did.  Both kids are out of college and grad school now and fully launched.  Husband about to retire from his big law grind of a job and we are late 50s - we were good savers and it's nice to be able to enjoy the empty next with travel now.  I have never been bored a day in my life - and I know our kids, my husband, the schools and charitable organizations where I volunteered and our friends are grateful that our house is where we all gathered with our friends and children's friends to enjoy good food and music and life in general. When my kids were in college I helped care for both of my elderly parents and my husbands mother - it was not stressful and a "nightmare" as some people describe because I had the time and support to do it.    Would not trade this life of caring for my family for the world - and neither would my family.  [/quote]
