[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Probably a lot of reasons, including costs. However, I think there some less flattering reasons as well. First, I think millenials and younger cohorts have bought into a “forever young” mentality where they don’t fully appreciate that some doors close permanently. The same mentality causes them to over prioritize going to the latest restaurants or bars well past the age where they should be. Finally, I think a lot of them have bought into the idea that career success is the primary thing to achieve. I am sure that is rewarding, but on the other hand, who is there with you when you are old and retired?[/quote] Omg yes. I have younger colleagues who are like YOLO I’ll start having kids when I’m 40. I’m like K. Enjoy going through multiple rounds of IVF and your kid being born from a donor egg, but no kite surfing five years in a row in Belize is totes worth it. [/quote]
