[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I chose a career that has great flexibility and ease to work for yourself. However, since I worked for 13 years before I had kids, I would’ve chose a more demanding career and worked my butt off and then taken my foot off the gas. I also would’ve gone for an advanced degree to set an example for my kids. I was terrified of incurring debt at the time. [/quote] On the other hand, while I was getting my two advanced degrees, many years went by when I was not contributing to my retirement in addition to accumulating some school loan debt. Upsides and downsides. Don't worry about not having an advanced degree where your example for your kids is concerned. I'm sure they think you are the bees knees.[/quote]
