[quote=Anonymous]DH and I both have been laid off in the past 5 years, he at 48, then a few years later me at 46. We both had a 6 month period of trying to find new jobs and it was rough. We both know it could happen again, not due to our performance, and it’s scary. We each make 110 and 160, so obviously not poor, but it’s harder to switch careers at this stage. We are also aiming to retire by 60 with the house paid off and the kids done with college, but I worry about health insurance between that time and 65, how expensive it will be and what if something catastrophic happens. Also, laughing at the person who said $140k per kid isn’t enough for college. Of course it is. We will have enough for our kids in public state schools Just coming here to say, I feel ya![/quote]
