[quote=Anonymous]I'm a SAHM, so we have no childcare costs, per se, but I want to caution you against thinking your costs will go down substantially as your kids age out of daycare/full-time nannies. We were thrilled to make our last preschool payment last January. Now our 8 year old needs orthodontic work prior to getting braces (hello, $10K). I was surprised to see how much summer camps (day camp) cost. We only do a few weeks of camp for $$ reasons. But I have friends who work full time who use summer camp for childcare, and they spend over $10K/summer for 3 kids. You may very well be able to afford the house, just don't underestimate how much money kids cost at older ages.[/quote]
