[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I chose to front load my life. Got married at 26 but no kids until 40. That way we had traveled, were in management roles and financially set before first kid arrived. [/quote] And in reference to the person who said OP should have lived near family to help with childcare, if yours follow your model you'll be 80 when your grandkids are born. And they'll be grappling with caring for young children AND having elderly parents who could well be in decline. Or you could be begging for their help but they don't have the bandwidth for children and their management careers (although everyone will have enough money to have paid help from strangers). Not to criticize but just to point out that there are a lot of ways to plan one's life and every one of them has some trap doors somewhere. [/quote]
