[quote=Anonymous]Think about what the income can bring you in terms of time and memories with the kids as they get older. You miss a couple of nights a month now, but the high income means you can take some amazing trips together on school breaks now, and even when they are adults. I bet if you can offer to take them on a long weekend to London when they are in their 20s, vs a weekend at Bethany beach, they will be much more inclined to join you! You can retire earlier, and spend more time/money visiting them when they eventually move out of your house. You’ll be able to afford a nicer, bigger house that the kids can come home to when they have their own kids. If you were gone 4 days a week, that would probably not be worth the trade off. But MS/HS kids, involved grandparents, and only missing a few nights a month seems well worth it! Heck, my husband rarely travels for work but he can go entire days without seeing the kids when he is super busy. [/quote]
