[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] But if you make low 6 figures together, you're not both pulling 12 hour days, right?[/quote] Nope. Even if we wanted to, it wouldn't be possible with childcare. 12 hours at a desk = 14 hours of childcare a day? Why should someone have to work 12 hours a day in order to afford housing and childcare? That's really all we want (and savings so child can have an education). If one of us worked that long every day, one of us would definitely have to stay home. My husband likes to say "we might be broke, but we're rich broke!". At least if we spent money on fancy things, we'd have something to show for it! But instead, we have excellent child care and have easy commutes so we can see him. We make it work, but it's not easy and if something breaks, it's hard to stomach (broken computer, car repair, ect)[/quote]
