[quote=Anonymous]It kind of sounds like you guys are in good shape financially but maybe have very high standards for yourself in terms of retirement savings and the type of home you want and neighborhood you want to live in. $100k in savings is a lot, and if home ownership isn't that important to you, I think you can let that savings rate decrease temporarily while you get a better childcare situation. I actually don't understand why you need $100k in an emergency fund, either. Also, what are your retirement goals and how do you contributions match those goals right now? Are they barely enough to retire at 65, or are you trying to retire early/with a ton of money? Also, could you compromise at all on where you are living?[/quote]
