[quote=Anonymous]- Married or met spouse by 30 - met at 27, married at 29. We have an ok marriage, not a fairy tale. Parenting exposed a lot of weaknesses.

- Made $150K or more by 30 - not quite, I was 34 or 35.

- Owned SFH by 35 - bought a TH at 25; sold it and bought SFH with DH at 32.

- Graduated with zero or manageable debt - yes, parents paid tuition at a state school and I covered room & board by working as an RA and holding down 2-3 jobs every summer.

- Remained thin and healthy throughout - I'm not super thin (size 4-6) but I'm healthy. Took 18 months off from working out after each of 2 kids but otherwise have maintained a consistent 3-4 day/week exercise routine since my mid-20s (usually early mornings). Have always eaten a pretty healthy diet. I think it's genetics and good habits from my family of origin.

- Continued with hobbies or activities or travel to make a fulfilling life - hahahahaha nope. I work, raise my kids, and try to exercise/sleep/read in the margins. I have no time for anything enjoyable. Almost all of my contact with friends is via text. This is where the DCUM myth falls apart.[/quote]
