[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I are very early 30s; ~$300K HHI. We want kids but I have no idea how we are going to do it. I make more so can’t be a SAHM; my husband would not be a good SAHD. And even on that salary childcare will wipe us out. This thread has been eye opening; thanks to all who posted. [/quote] I’m a single parent by choice (so I had no option to stay home) with an income of ~$150k and two kids. Absent any major debts, childcare shouldn’t be wiping you out? Childcare for one kid for one year ranges from $20-70k depending on location and the form of care you choose but should definitely be manageable at $300k.[/quote]
