[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are millennial DINKs. Couldn't be happier.  Own a home. Max out retirement accounts. Take multiple trips per year. Have very little debt except a mortgage. Sleep until 10 AM on the weekends.

Kids ruin everything.  I paid $85k off in student loans. I will absolutely NEVER pay another college bill again in my life. F that.  Then they gouge the crap outta you for $3000-4000 per mo for childcare. Ridiculous.  There's also no guarantee your kid won't turn out to be a F up even if you raise them right.  I know so many kids raised in good homes who ended up becoming opioid addicts, so one robbed a bank, and others popping out kids out of wedlock by the time they're 21.  The worst ones are kids who get into serious trouble and the parents blow their entire life's savings on legal fees or rehab to save their precious little Hunter or Emily.

Nope, nope, nope.  Finally getting ahead in life because of no kids. [/quote]

So it's all about money and sleeping in until 10am? OK.

One of the more immature responses.

Who are your friends?? Opioid addict, bank robbing, teen pregnancies??

Kids will help you get ahead in life more than you think. Since having kids my income has gone up immensely. I work in a service based business and people love that I have kids. Most of my client convos are about my kids. Referrals come in a lot more regularly.

Grow your income and have kids. Life isn't about going to Chiang Mai and sleeping until 10. Our country is so F'ed.[/quote]

It’s not about money?  In the finance forum?  Really?  [/quote]

Blaming money to not have kids is a sell out answer..particularly if you already own a home, max our 401ks, etc.

[b]Word of advice..as a grown adult you shouldn't be bragging about sleeping in until 10am on the weekends...[/b]

Why, you jealous? I'd rather hear about sleeping in until 10am vs cleaning up little larlos blowout[/quote]
