[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm with you OP - but college costs $60-70k at a private school now, it was $40k when I graduated in 2007, I can't possibly save fast enough to keep up with the rate of increase right now (as I stare down something like $3700/month in day care costs next year on $7000/month net income) so I can understand people not having saved ENOUGH. [/quote] Honestly, this is when you have to do the math on how much you earn (net) per hour and think about having a parent stay home.[/quote] We've done it. The two will overlap in day care for 6-8 months, depending on how much parental leave we can wrangle. We are both specialized and it us each longer than that to find new jobs in our fields in our last job searches. Sometimes you have to think long term.[/quote]
