[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We want a third but since the eldest is already in private school I don’t know how we could do it. HHI of 700k but unlike PP we don’t take luxury vacations or have luxury cars. [/quote]

Classic dcum.

Gentle caution: my SIL’s husband convinced her they couldn’t afford a third child (she desperately wanted one). He earned north of $750. Long story short: he was planning his exit strategy once the youngest hit a certain age and he had a certain amount of savings/investments to cover the divorce and maintain his standard of living.

If you can’t afford a kid at $700k, then you are doing something wrong or something is up with your husband.

If you aren’t traveling, then something is definitely up with your husband. He’s likely using vacation time with someone else. [/quote]

What in the world. Just stop. [/quote]

New poster.

No, the poster with the SIL is correct.

There are people in this country making less than $100,000 that can afford 4+ kids!   There is something very WRONG when someone making several hundred thousand dollars a year says they "can't afford" children!

If you don't WANT children, fine...totally your business.   But it's absolute BS to pretend you need to be a multi billionaire to afford more than one kid.  [/quote]
