[quote=Anonymous]No.  (but I also was one of the posters that thinks regrets are useless).

I met DH at 26 (he was 25), got married at 28, traveled endlessly/lived abroad/took a sabbatical/went to all kinds of world parties/advanced in career and pooled dual income, decided at 34 to get knocked up--happened first try.  I had first kid at 35 and second one a month after I turned 38. We both our fitness nuts and look and move much younger.

It's been perfect.  We are in are mid-40s now and life is good.  I didn't miss out on a single thing in my youth and was very senior in my profession that I now have incredible workplace flexibility(WAH).  We have tons of savings, etc.

If I had them earlier I feel the empty nest would come up too quick. I was glad to experience a bulk of travel when I was young and could hang out with young locals at Love Parade, Oktoberfest, tomatino, etc...and see the incredible club scenes.  It isn't the same type of experience when you go over for the first time when your old (which I will do too).[/quote]
