[quote=Anonymous]I think yes. Marriage is cheap, kids and housing are not. My kids are going to be much more widely spaced than i would find ideal due to day care coats, unpaid leave, and the long time it's taking us to balance two careers, and i can't imagine ever buying a house closer than an hour and a half from work in DC. I'm 32, spouse is 36, neither of us makes over $100k perhaps it was our terrible life choice to not become lawyers or whatever, but the fact is that childcare and housing in the DC area are not affordable for people with normal middle class salaries.
