[quote=Anonymous]We're a $350K couple with three kids. We're have the 4BR/3BR suburban yard, inside the Beltway commute at GS 10 public schools, local vacations, modest cars and fully funded 401ks, etc. We paid $25K per year per kid for daycare/preschool and only have one left to go. I've calculated we've spent close to $500K in after tax funds for preschool/summer camps for our three kids to date and that's excluding 529s for college. Could we have saved more and had more disposable income without kids? Of course! Do I regret the decision? Not at all. It's a personal choice. However, kids are expensive in this area - both in time and money. You have to be much more deliberate about how you are spending your money after kids.[/quote]
